Sasha made a small pizza with 4 pieces of ham and 5 pieces of pineapple. she is making a large pizza with 12 pieces of ham using the same ratio of ham to pineapple.

How many pieces of pineapple does Sasha need for the large pizza? complete the table.

1 answer

| | Small Pizza | Large Pizza |
|---|-------------|-------------|
| Ham | 4 | 12 |
| Pineapple | 5 | x |

To find how many pieces of pineapple Sasha needs for the large pizza, we can set up a proportion:

4/5 = 12/x

Cross multiplying, we get:

4x = 60

Dividing by 4 on both sides:

x = 15

So, Sasha needs 15 pieces of pineapple for the large pizza.
