Mason wanted to buy pizza for the entire class. There are 20 people in his class. He figured that each person would eat two slices and there are 8 slices in each pizza. Each pizza costs $12.00. 

1. How many pizzas will Mason need? 

2. How much will Mason spend? 

Mason will need to buy 5 pizzas. I know this because 20 people * 2 slices each = 40 slices. 8 * ____ = 40 The missing number is 5. If each pizza is $12.00 then I will multiply 12 * 5 and get 60.
