Mark and his friends order two pizzas of the same size the first pizza is cut into 6 slices of equal size the second pizza is cu
t into 4 slices of equal size each person plans to take 2 slices of pizza Mark concludes that he would get more pizza by taking 1 slice from each pizza instead of 2 slices from the first pizza explain why mark is correct
The first pizza is 6 slices, so each slice is 1/6 of a pizza. The second pizza is 4 slices, so each slice is 1/4 of a pizza. If you were to take one slice of each, you would get 1/6 +1/4 slice, which would be 5/12 of a pizza, as opposed to if you took 2 slices of the first pizza, which would only be 4/12 of a pizza.
