Question 669225
Which one of the following is a better buy: a large pizza with a 14-inch diameter for $12.00 or a medium pizza with a 7-inch diameter for $5.00?
-----
14" area: (pi)14^2 sq.in
Price per sq. in: [pi*14^2]/1200 == 0.51 cents/sq in
----
7" area: (pi)7^2 sq.in
Price per sq in: (pi*7^2)/500 = 0.31 cents/sq in
-----
Medium is cheaper.
Cheers,
