Wednesday: Miss Marydoll's Marvellous Maths Question ?

Finish together? Unless one starts chewing faster than the other ?

It does involve some calculations.
Take it that they start at the same time and each starts eating a new pizza, both the same size, as the previous one.

I think they will both finish together MissDoll in 12 minutes?

Just going back to double check.

Gillybob, you are quick off the mark, this morning!

I thought that immediately but then thought “that must be too easy”.

I’m still trying to work it out ! Maths was never my strong suit.

I remember being surprised when a family of teenage boys visited and ate a whole pizza each. Being mostly girls in our family we share one and ate salad with it.

Marydoll it reminds me of “ problems “ in primary school . I could never do them and was told to sit at the back and write a story because I asked too many questions. Says it all really.

And another thing !

You saying it’s quite easy doesn’t help my inferiority complex ????

I got to 12 minutes each an thought it too easy! Plus, who takes that long to eat a pizza when they’re ravenous?

both will finish at the same time .

Now , you've made me want pizza for lunch ! I'll time myself!

They finish both at same time

Neither - they took so long dividing it up that the dog ran off with it .....

Sorry Miss!

Finish at same time.

Both finish together

I agree, they both finish at the same time.

John in 9 minutes

Because Billy already ate one quarter of John's pizza before they started.
Greedy guts

Oh, I see, they finished the first pizza then each had another one. I should read on down he thread, but I didn't want to see any answers first.

Each took 12 minutes.
Now they're full but John is fuller because Billy ate one and a quarter pizzas and John ate one and three quarters.

Am I overthinking again

I’m with Squiffy, I think the dog pinched the pizza ? ?

I would say Billy

Because John couldn't manage all his after eating most of the first one.

They both finish at the same time.
PleaseMiss I don’t like pepperoni. Can we have a different pizza? ?

I'll pick the pepperoni off for you Doodle

Don't touch the rest of the pizza for 72 hours afterwards, though.

Oops, the dog took another one!

No solution for the moment, to let others have a go.

First warning to those who are trying to disrupt my classroom. So sad to see, that as well as the usual suspects, a few more are being led astray.

I'm wearing my sad teacher face ?at the moment. Doodle , Callistemon, are you listening? ?

Here's another pizza problem to keep you going. For goodness sake keep it away from the dog!
