fun fact: to find the actual diameter of the pizza that would larger by a factor of x its (D/2)*2√x
good luck finding a place that offers irrational size pizza though
yeah, but
C_1 = pi * d = 3,14 * 18 = 56,52
C_2 = pi * d * 2 = 3,14 * 12 * 2 = 75,36
so the smaller ones have 50% more crust and are therefor more delicious.

But… it’s twice as many slices!
OK, but with the 2 pizzas on the right, I get twice as many slices of salami.
But each slice of salami on the left has more than twice as much salami as each slice of salami on the right.
There's no cheating math.

I found myself making a similar calculation recently - I have a project car, and when I dragged it out of a field and hacked the vegetation out of the engine compartment, there was a 40mm motorcycle carburetor mounted to an adapter mounted to the intake. The carburetor even had a Harley-Davidson logo embossed in it.
I wanted to put a two-barrel Weber carb on it, which had a 36 mm and a 32 mm throttle plate. The 40 mm motorcycle carb had an area of 1256 mm^2^, while the combined area for the Weber was more like 1820 mm^2^.
Is this a prank
