One fourth-grade class ate
32 slices of pizza for lunch.
Each of the 6 fourth-grade
classes ate the same amount of
pizza. How many slices of pizza
did the fourth graders eat in all?
Since there are six classes, and all the classes eat the same amount of food, we know that you would do 6 times X. X is 32, because 1 class ate 32 slices of pizza. So the answer is 32.
