Question

How many Thin Crust pizzas were to be delivered to Party 3?

• A. 398
• B. 162
• C. 196
• D. 364

Answer 1

The correct option is B

162

Given, Number of pizzas to be delivered to Party $3=0.7\times 800=560$
Number of pizzas to be delivered to Party 2 = Number of pizzas to be delivered to Party $1=\frac{(800-560)}{2}=120$
Refer to the table below:
$\begin{array}{ccc}\text{Party}& \text{Thin Crust(T)}& \text{Normal Cheese (NC)}\\ 1& 0.6\times 120=72& 416-36-364=16\\ 2& 0.55\times 120=66& 0.3\times 120=36\\ 3& 300-72-66=162& 0.65\times 560=364\\ \text{Total}& 0.375\times 800=300& 0.52\times 800=416\end{array}$
As can be seen in the table, number of Thin crust (T) pizzas to be delivered to Party 3 = 162.
