Answer:
Sasha used 15 pieces of pineapple
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is
Sasha made a small pizza with four pieces of ham and five pieces of pineapple. He is making a large pizza with 12 pieces of ham using the same proportion of pineapple ham. How many pieces of pineapple did Sasha use?
Let
x ----> pieces of ham
y ----> pieces of pineapple
we know that
[tex]\frac{x}{y}=\frac{4}{5}[/tex] ----> equation A
For x=12
substitute in the equation A and solve for y
[tex]\frac{12}{y}=\frac{4}{5}[/tex]
[tex]y=12(5)/4\\y=15[/tex]
therefore
Sasha used 15 pieces of pineapple
