The quiz bowl team had a pizza party at the end of the season. The coach ordered a large pizza and ate 1/6 of the pizza. If the team members each ate 1/12 of the pizza, how many team members can eat?

10 team members

Step-by-step explanation:

In terms of fraction,

Pizza = 1

Pizza eaten by coach = 1/6

Pizza leftover = Total pizza - pizza eaten by coach

Pizza leftover = 1 - 1/6

Pizza leftover = 5/6

Each team member ate 1/12 of the pizza

Team members : y

1/12 * y = 5/6

y = (5x12) / (6x1)

y = 10 team members

Therefore, 10 team members can eat the pizza.
