At Dominos the prices ranged from $5.99 to 9.99. All of these prices need to have 4.5% sales tax added. Our best price was the special at Dominos for a cost of $6.26 for 12 slices.

We are ranking the prices and need the name of the pizza and the exact price. It would also help if we knew where you got the prices from, like Dominos or Pizza Hut. Your graph made it easy to see what your favorite pizza was. Thanks for sending the graph.

Kuwait has only one main urban area generally called Kuwait City but, naturally it is divided into suburbs. The prices were obtained from the Pizza Hut and Sbarros in the suburb of Salmiyah. The Pizza Hut is the American Chain and has many outlets city-wide all with the same prices. I think there is only one Sbarro though at the moment. Neil Rickards bigg@access.ods.gulfnet.kw ********************* Santa Ana, California ********************* From: Vonnie L Phillips vphilli@cello.gina.calstate.edu On Friday, March 3, our math group went on a walking field trip to Valentino's Pizza in Santa Ana - a few blocks from our school in Garden Grove. We ordered 2 large pizzas - one with Canadian Bacon and Pepperoni, the other was Canadian Bacon and Mushrooms. The price was $14 for both, including tax. For the Math penpalj project we had to check the price of a large Cheese Pizza. The regular price for that was $8.25, but they were having a pecial for $4.04, including tax. The large pizza is divided into 12 slices. We thought the cheese pizza was a good deal, but we wanted toppings. We really enjoy these projects that give us a chance to go on a field trip to research information.
