The circumference of the 12-inch Pizza is twice as big as the 6-inch pizza.

Determine the circumference (C) of both pizzas.

C = pi x d, where d is the diameter

6-inch pizza

C = pi x 6 in = 18.85 in

12-inch pizza

C = pi x 12 in = 37.70 in

Divide the circumference of the larger pizza by the circumference of the smaller pizza.

37.70/18.85 = 2

Which is better deal 2 8 inches pizza for 10.99 or one 12 inches pizza for 9.99?

1 12 inch pizza for 9.99 is the better deal. Whether or not we consider the total volume of pizza purchased or just the surface area of pizza (which reflects how much topping there will be) the proportion between the 12 inch and the two 8 inch pizzas (combined) always results in 9:8. So you are getting slightly more pizza with the 12 inch pizza, and it is cheaper, so it is the better deal. Volume = pi * r2 * h. As r2 for the 12 inch pizza = 62 = 36, this is more than 2 * 42 = 32 by the proportion 36:32, which simplifies to 9:8.

Would you get more pizza selecting 3 slices of the 12 inch pizza or 2 slices of the 16 inch pizza?

Assume both pizzas are cut into eight slices. 3 slices of the 12 inch pizza make an angle of3 pi/4 and area is 1/2 radius squared times angle where radius is 6 inch so area = 42.4 sq in 2 slices of the 16 inch pizza make an angle of pi/2 and area is 1/2 radius squared times angle where radius is 8 inch so area = 50.2 sq in so the two 16 inch slices give you more pizza
