Tony, owner of Tony’s Pizza Parlor, is expanding his business. Right now, his pizza parlor uses 8 lbs of pepperoni for every 3 lbs of green peppers. If the expanded business uses the same relationship between ingredients, and Tony thinks he’ll need 19.5 lbs of green peppers, how many pounds of pepperoni will he need?

Answer:

52 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to find out how many pounds of pepperoni he needs for one pound of green peppers so you do 8 divided by 3 and you get 2.66666666666667 then you multiply that by the 19.5 pounds of green peppers and you get 52 meaning you need 52 pounds of pepperoni (: hope that helps
