Estimating the number of pizzas to order

What's your method to figuring out how many pizzas to order for a large group of people?
1 pizza for every 5 kids and 1 pizza per 3 adults?
I always seem to order too many.

Better to have too many than too few.

2 slices per kid and 3 for adult as an estimate.
Some eat more, some eat less. Unless all your friends are fatties, then everyone eats more.

Depends on the pizza. Obviously.
And the size of the eaters. If its me and 3 of my guy friends, it might be 3 larges. If its 4 adult women it might be 1 large.

I'm here for you buddy. Order the best value first. Mediums will do but if larges are cheaper get the larges.
Very important to do this part---
Get the pizzas "party cut"! If they don't understand that term say you want 10 slices(5 passes with the rocker) of a large 8 of medium.
Then you figure a large pepperoni pizza will feed 3.5 kids, 3 adults.
Medium pepperoni will feed 3 kids, 2 adults.
This is all based on hand tossed dough. Don't go thin. thin sucks.

I don't worry about it because pizza makes the best leftovers.

When I'm on a project I do 1 per two people for lunch. Some will eat less some will eat more.

Now THIS is quality OT insight. I never knew about this "party cut" of which you speak.

I use this simple formula
p = i * (z + z)^a
p = i * (z + z)^a

buy a bunch of larges and slice it up into 8 if you have a lot of big eaters or just 6 if it's more women and kids

Party cut it is! Excellent answer, thanks!
