One tenth of the circumference.
Diameter given as 18 inches means radius is 9 inches. Circumference is 2%2Api%2Ar=2%2Api%2A9=highlight%2818%2Api%29.

The pizza is cut into 10 equal slices, putting the circumference into lengths of highlight%28%2818%2Api%29%2F10%29.
Compute and round to whatever accuracy you need.
