[quote=Anonymous]Ok, now I need help understanding this. Lol! Why can't the answer be 8 peperoni slices and 7 cheese slices? Or 9 peperoni slices and 6 cheese slices? It still follows the rules of having 7 more peperoni slices than cheese and equals 15 slices total. Yes, I understand the algebraic equations in other posts and how they got the answer. I understand why that's the only answer you will come up with using the algebraic equation to solve it, but why is that the only answer? Given the parameters, an answer of 8 peperoni slices and 7 cheese slices follows the rules too, just without using math for the answer. (Please don't beat up on me for this question. I'm just wondering.)[/quote]
