8. Just the Facts Boys  2,220 calories a day Girls  1,845 calories a day Forty pieces of pepperoni on the pizza Ten calories in one piece of pepperoni The calories in the cheese are seventy-two times the calories in one piece of pepperoni. There are one hundred twenty-four more calories in the crust than in the cheese. The calories in the tomato sauce are one-sixth the calories of the cheese. There are eight slices in the pizza.

10. Expressions One slice of pepperoni: p = 10 Total pepperoni calories: 40p Total cheese calories: 72p Total calories in crust: 72p + 124 Total sauce calories: 72p/6

11. Equations One slice of pepperoni: p = 10 Total pepperoni calories: 40p = 400 Total cheese calories: 72p = 720 Total calories in crust: 72p + 124 = 844 Total sauce calories: 72p/6 = 120

12. Expression (entire pizza) 40p + 72p + (72p + 124) + (72p/6) Equation (entire pizza) = 2,084

13. Calories per Slice 2,084 / 8= 260.5 Calories for Two Slices 260.5 x 2= 521
