Question

A pizza with radius 7 in. is cut into 12 equal-sized pieces. What is the area of each piece? Round to the nearest hundredth of an inch

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of one piece of pizza ≈ 12.83 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all let's calculate the area of the pizza.

Pizza is circular in shape, thus,

Area; A = πr²

We are given the radius;r = 7 inches

So, A = π(7²) = 153.94 in²

Now, since the area is divided into 12 equal sized pieces, thus we will divide the total area we got by 12 to get the area of one piece.

Area of one piece of pizza = 153.94/12 ≈ 12.83 inches
