Respuesta :

Answer:

Using proportions, the pizza parlor should expect 20 breadsticks and 25 calzone orders if there were 100 total orders.

Step-by-step explanation:

Orders:

Salads                           3

Pizzas                           8

Sides of breadsticks   4

Pepperoni calzones    5

Total orders:              20


Proportion of sides breadsticks=4/20=0.2

Proportion of pepperoni calzones=5/20=0.25


For 100 total orders:

Sides of breadsticks=0.2(100)=20

Pepperoni calzones=0.25(100)=25
