To determine how much pizza sauce Julio needs to bring, we need to follow several steps:

1. Calculate the number of pizzas needed:

There are 30 students, and each pizza serves 8 students.

Number of pizzas = [tex]\( \frac{30 \text{ students}}{8 \text{ students per pizza}} \)[/tex]

Number of pizzas = 3.75

So, 3.75 pizzas are needed to feed all the students.

2. Calculate the amount of sauce needed for each pizza:

We know that 1 pizza requires [tex]\( \frac{2}{3} \)[/tex] cup of sauce.

3. Calculate the total amount of sauce needed for 3.75 pizzas:

Amount of sauce per pizza = [tex]\( \frac{2}{3} \)[/tex] cups

Total sauce needed = [tex]\( 3.75 \)[/tex] pizzas [tex]\( \times \frac{2}{3} \)[/tex] cups per pizza

Total sauce needed = [tex]\( \frac{3.75 \times 2}{3} \)[/tex]

Total sauce needed = [tex]\( \frac{7.5}{3} \)[/tex]

Total sauce needed = 2.5 cups

So, Julio should bring 2.5 cups of pizza sauce for the class.
