Answer: [tex]1\ \text{Pizza}\ \text{and}\ \dfrac{5}{16}\ \text{pizza}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Mr. Caldwell has 10 full pizzas and half of another one
he wants to distribute it in among 8 of his students
Total pizzas are [tex]10+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{21}{2}[/tex]
So, each student gets
[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{\dfrac{21}{2}}{8}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{21}{16}\ \text{or}\ 1\dfrac{5}{16}[/tex]
that is 1 pizza and five-sixteenth part of a pizza.
