We are comparing areas, so square of the linear dimension
Relative cost per unit area
12^2/6=24
16^2/10=256/10=25.6
Since 24<25.6, the 12" pizza is a better deal.
Note: we could compare exact area by calculating A=pi (d^2)/4, but since it is a relative comparison, the result will be the same, albeit more work.
Can you be more specific?

Given:
Original or base : 40
New amount : 72
We need to find the difference of the new amount and the original amount
72 - 40 = 32
We then divide the difference by the original amount
32/40 = 0.80
We multiply the quotient by 100%
0.80 x 100% = 80%
The percentage of change is 80%
