A restaurant used ounces of cheese to make slices of pizza. If each slice had the same amount of cheese, how much cheese was on each slice?

1 answer

To find out how much cheese was on each slice of pizza, you can divide the total amount of cheese used by the number of slices of pizza.

If we denote the amount of cheese used as \( x \) ounces and the number of slices of pizza as \( y \), the formula would be:

\[ \text{Cheese per slice} = \frac{x \text{ ounces}}{y \text{ slices}} \]

This will give you the amount of cheese on each slice of pizza. Just plug in the values for \( x \) and \( y \) to calculate the cheese per slice.
