There are 3 food options for her - A burger, a pie, and a pizza. If she ate those in order for a 100 days, you would have to do 100 days ÷ the 3 choices. That is 33, remainder 1. This means that she goes through the cycle (fully) 33 times, and on the hundredth day, she is back to the first option. Hence, the answer is the burger.

99 is multiple by 3.therefore next is burger

The pattern described in the word problem is a 3 step repeated pattern (burger, pie, pizza). The problem asks for the 100th step - so we know 99 is a multiple of 3 and would place us on the pizza step, we need only add one to reach the hundredth step - BURGER!
