Answer:
The number of cake for order is 15 cakes .
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
Total number of people to attend the dance = x = 60
The number of slices each person will eat = A = 2 slices
The number of slices per cake = y = 8 slices
Let The number of cake for order = z
Now, According to question
Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices = total number of people × number of slices each person will eat
i.e Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices = x × A
Or, Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices = 60 × 2 slices
Or,Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices = 120 slices
Again
∵ number of slices per cake = 8
∴ The number of cake for order = [tex]\dfrac{\textrm Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices}{\textrm number of slices per cake }[/tex]
Or, z = [tex]\frac{x\times A}{y}[/tex]
i.e z = [tex]\frac{120}{8}[/tex]
∴ z = 15 cakes
So,The number of cake for order = z = 15 cakes
Hence,The number of cake for order is 15 cakes . Answer
