since the amount of pizza (area) is proportional to the SQUARE of the diameter
\n" ); document.write( "___ the 12\" pizza is 1.44 times (144/100) as large as the 10\" pizza\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "since the price is about 1.2 times (5.99/4.99) as much, the larger pizza is a better buy
\n" ); document.write( "___ and it costs less per person -- $1.50 vs $1.67\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "MORE pizza ... LESS cost ... WHAT A DEAL!!!
