In how many weeks will the total number of pizza crusts made by Pepe's Pizza equal twice the total number of pizza crusts made by Dianne's Delicatessen?

    Let pn = The total number of pizza crusts made by the end of the nth week

    For Pepe's Pizza:

    Pn + 52 + 180n

    For Diannes's

    Pn = 25 + 90n

    The total number of pizza crusts made by Pep's Pizza equals twice the total number of pizza crusts made by Dianne's Delicatessen when:

    52 + 180n = 2 (26 + 90n)

    52 + 180n = 52 + 180n

    This equation is satisfied for any value of n, so Pepe's always makes twice as much as Dianne's
