○=> Correct answer :
[tex]\color{plum}\bold{\tt\boxed{\tt\bold{2}} \: \: \bold{pepperoni \: pizzas}}[/tex]
○=> Steps to derive correct :
Number of Pepperoni pizzas for 3 cheese pizzas = 1
This can be written in a ratio as = 3:1
Number of cheese pizzas the school band bought = 6
Let the number of pepperoni pizzas they bought be x.
Which means :
[tex] =\tt \frac{3}{1} = \frac{6}{x} [/tex]
[tex] =\tt 3 \times x = 6 \times 1[/tex]
[tex] =\tt 3x = 6[/tex]
[tex] =\tt x = \frac{6}{3} [/tex]
[tex] =\color{plum}\tt 2 \: pepperoni \:pizzas[/tex]
▪︎Therefore, the school band bought 2 pepperoni pizzas.
