Martin made a veggie pizza on a whole wheat crust. He used 16 ounces of cheese. He cut his pizza into 8 slices.

Question

There are ____________ ounces of cheese in one slice of pizza.

There are _________ grams of carbohydrates from mozzarella cheese in each slice.

There are ____________ grams of carbohydrates from mozzarella cheese in the entire pizza.

Answer 1

To calculate the ounces of cheese in one slice of pizza, we can divide the total ounces of cheese by the number of slices.

1. Ounces of cheese in one slice: \[ \text{Ounces of cheese per slice} = \frac{16 \text{ ounces}}{8 \text{ slices}} = 2 \text{ ounces per slice} \]

2. Grams of carbohydrates from mozzarella cheese in each slice: Mozzarella cheese typically contains about 0.6 grams of carbohydrates per ounce. Therefore, for 2 ounces: \[ \text{Carbs per slice} = 2 \text{ ounces} \times 0.6 \text{ grams/ounce} = 1.2 \text{ grams per slice} \]

3. Grams of carbohydrates from mozzarella cheese in the entire pizza: Since the pizza has 8 slices: \[ \text{Total carbs in pizza} = 1.2 \text{ grams/slice} \times 8 \text{ slices} = 9.6 \text{ grams} \]

Now we can fill in the blanks:

• There are 2 ounces of cheese in one slice of pizza.
• There are 1.2 grams of carbohydrates from mozzarella cheese in each slice.
• There are 9.6 grams of carbohydrates from mozzarella cheese in the entire pizza.

Answer 2

last 2 are wrong

Answer 3

I apologize for any confusion. Let's carefully re-calculate the grams of carbohydrates from mozzarella cheese.

Given Information:

• Cheese Used: 16 ounces
• Slices of Pizza: 8 slices
• Carbohydrates in Mozzarella: Approximately 0.6 grams of carbohydrates per ounce.

Calculations:

1. Ounces of cheese in one slice: \[ \text{Ounces of cheese per slice} = \frac{16 \text{ ounces}}{8 \text{ slices}} = 2 \text{ ounces per slice} \]

2. Grams of carbohydrates from mozzarella cheese in each slice: Since there are 0.6 grams of carbohydrates per ounce of mozzarella: \[ \text{Carbs per slice} = 2 \text{ ounces} \times 0.6 \text{ grams/ounce} = 1.2 \text{ grams per slice} \]

   Therefore, this part seems accurate based on standard mozzarella content.

3. Grams of carbohydrates from mozzarella cheese in the entire pizza: To find the total for all slices: \[ \text{Total carbs in pizza} = 1.2 \text{ grams/slice} \times 8 \text{ slices} = 9.6 \text{ grams} \]

If there was a mistake or a specific different carbohydrate content for mozzarella cheese, please provide that information. Based on the standard content:

• Total per slice: 1.2 grams
• Total for the entire pizza: 9.6 grams

If you have a different carbohydrate value for mozzarella or other factors involved, please let me know!
