Solution

Step 1: Determine how many pizzas are needed for the class. Since one pizza serves 8 people, divide the total number of students (28) by the number of people one pizza serves (8).

28 ÷ 8 = 3.5

This means Ms. Perez would need 4 pizzas to feed all her students because you can't order half a pizza.

Step 2: Multiply the number of pizzas needed by the cost of one pizza to find the total cost.

4 pizzas * 15perpizza=15 per pizza = 60

So, Ms. Perez should expect to pay $60 for pizzas for her class.
