<span>A hexagon is a good choice for a problem like this.
If you draw a regular hexagon, you will see that the distance across it must be the same 14 1/8" to clear the 14" pizza...that distance must be side to side not vertex to vertex...
That 14 1/8" distance is the length of two apothems.
Thus the apothem is 7 1/16".</span>

Answer:
220 color combinations are possible.
Step-by-step explanation:
A combination is a way of selecting members from a grouping, such that the order of selection does not matter.
in our case we have 3-combinations of a set of 12 elements:
C(12, 3) = 12!/(3! (12-3)!)
C(12, 3) = 12!/(3! 9!)
C(12, 3) = (10*11*12)/(2*3)
C(12, 3) = 220 color combinations are possible.
