Answer:
The Pretty Pizza Company should open a new pizza place on the south area.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population of 15 blocks of the north side of town is 225 people per block, and there are already 36 pizza places in the area.
15*225 = 3375 people
36 pizza places
36/3375 = 0.0106 > 0.1
So not on the north side of the town.
The population of 22 blocks of the south area is 275 people per block, and there are 37 pizza places in the area.
22*275 = 6050 people
37 pizza places
37/6050 = 0.006 < 0.1
So, the Pretty Pizza Company should open a new pizza place on the south area.
