Given:
A 6-inch personal pizza has 620 calories, with 240 of those from fat.
A 16-inch pizza is cut into 8 slices.
So, the total number of calories in a 16-inch pizza will be calculated using the ratio and the proportions:
A 6-inch pizza : A 16-inch pizza
6 : 16
620 : x
Using the cross product:
[tex]x=\frac{16\cdot620}{6}=1653.33[/tex]A 16-inch pizza is cut into 8 slices.
So, the number of calories in one slice =
[tex]\frac{1653.33}{8}\approx206.67[/tex]So, the answer will be:
The number of calories in one slice = 206.67 calories
