Your
Problem
Amanda was selling pizza for basketball. She sold
4 pizzas to her friends right away and then sold 2
pizzas each day after. If she sold 16 pizzas
altogether, how many days did she sell?
Your Work:
Day 1: 4 Day 2: 2 (2+4=6) Day 3: 2 (2+4+2=8) Day 4: 2 (2+4+2+2=10) Day 5: 2 (2+4+2+2+2=12) Day 6: 2 (2+4+2+2+2+2=14) Day 7: 2 (2+4+2+2+2+2+2=16) She sold for a week/7 days.
