Question

Shaun used 10 packages of onions and equation image indicator 1/3 of a package of Pizza. How much more onions than Pizza did Shaun use?
29/3 packages
3 packages
2/3 packages
10 packages

Answer 1

To determine how much more onions Shaun used than pizza, we need to compare the quantity of onions he used to the quantity of pizza.

Shaun used:
- Onions: 10 packages
- Pizza: \( \frac{1}{3} \) of a package

Now, we can convert 10 packages of onions to a fraction with the same denominator as the pizza:

\[
10 = \frac{10 \times 3}{3} = \frac{30}{3}
\]

Now, we can find the difference between the onions and pizza:

\[
\text{Difference} = \text{Onions} - \text{Pizza} = \frac{30}{3} - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{30 - 1}{3} = \frac{29}{3}
\]

So, Shaun used \( \frac{29}{3} \) packages more onions than pizza.

The correct answer is \( \frac{29}{3} \) packages.
