Let's solve the problem step by step using the
pictograph provided in the image.
Understanding the Pictograph
Each 🍕 (pizza emoji) represents
5 pizzas.
We need to count the number of pizza symbols for each day and multiply by 5 to get the actual number of pizzas sold.
---
Step 1: Count the pizzas sold each day
| Day | Number of Pizza Symbols | Pizzas Sold (×5) |
|-----------|--------------------------|------------------|
| Monday | 3 | 3 × 5 = 15 |
| Tuesday | 6 | 6 × 5 = 30 |
| Wednesday | 4 | 4 × 5 = 20 |
| Thursday | 7 | 7 × 5 = 35 |
| Friday | 5 | 5 × 5 = 25 |
