    10% of 1000 is 100 and 15% is 150. A manatee would eat between 100 and 150lbs of food if it were to weigh 1,000lbs.

    Our group average weight is 100lbs. Therefore, if we had to eat 10% and 15% of our weight every day, we would have to eat 10 to 15 pizzas every day provided each pizza weighs 1 pound.

    One member of our group weighs 104.5 pounds. This person must eat 10.5 -16 pizzas in one day to equal 10% to 15% of the body weight.

    Fawad, Michael, Tiffany, Hiral

    If one member weighs 132lbs, in order to eat 10% of his weight, he must eat 13.2 pizza pies and at 15%, 19.8 pies each day.
