Do you think you have what it takes to solve this pizza eating time puzzle? Let’s find out!
Step 1: Calculate the time to eat one whole pizza
Donna, our pizza enthusiast, can devour 1/4 of a pizza in just 1 minute. Isn’t that impressive? So, the time it takes for her to finish one whole pizza is:
Time for one pizza = 4 × 1 minute = 4 minutes
Step 2: Calculate the time to eat 2.5 pizzas
Now, let’s ratchet up the challenge a bit. If it takes Donna 4 minutes to eat one pizza, how long will it take her to consume 2.5 pizzas?
To find the total time, we need to multiply the time for one pizza by 2.5:
Total time = 2.5 × 4 minutes = 10 minutes
Conclusion
So there you have it! Donna will need a total of 10 minutes to devour 2.5 pizzas. Impressive, right?
Now it’s your turn to solve this puzzle. Go ahead, grab a slice of pizza, and give it a try. Can you beat Donna’s impressive pizza eating speed?
