We have two slices of pizza. One is with a radius of 6 inches and a central angle of 60 degrees while the other is with 7 inches and a central angle of 45 degrees. The first slice costs $1.50 and the second one costs $1.70. Although the prices aren't realistic (unless you are in New York because there are $1 slices), which slice is a better deal?

​@@feuerschlange6374 nobody said anything about cancelling angle/360. They said that 1/360 is a common factor, which can be cancelled in both calculations. i.e. 60pi×6² and 45pi×7² However, the way I did it mentally was simplifying the fraction and expanding the square. ⅙pi×36 vs ⅛pi×49 pi can get cancelled 6 vs 49/8 = 6⅛ so the right one is slightly larger but proportionally much more expensive. So i estimated the left one is more worth it.

I've used a bit different method to solve this: 1. Divide the area for the bigger piece by the area of the smaller piece (pi's and 360's cancel out). I've got 45/60*(7^2)/(6^2) = 1.02 or 2% growth in area for the bigger piece. 2. Divide the prices: 1.70/1.50 = 1.13 or 13% growth in price for the bigger piece. 3. Since the growth in price is bigger than growth in area, smaller piece will be a better deal.

With just a couple of tricks you actually don't have to calculate exact values. First pizza has 36 square units for 9 bucks, so it's 4 units for $1. Second pizza has 49 units for 1.7*8 = $13.6, but for $13 we can buy 52 units of the first pizza. So, first is cheaper.

It's better if you just grab a slice and carry on with how close both of these are. If I'm getting paid minimum wage of 7.25 an hour and I'm doing roughly 4:32 seconds worth of work. That comes out to roughly 54 cents of time to calculate this problem. So it costs more money to calculate the unit price of these two similar pizzas than the money you lose by randomly picking the slice of those two closely sized slices.

As a lot of people here have pointed out, the crust is also important. In addition to that, the enjoynment of the crust matters too. Lets label that 'c'. The enjoynment of the rest would be 1 as in 100 %. Assume that the crust is 1 inch. The wide pizza has an area of A_wp = 1/6*π*5^2 = 25π/6 and the tall pizza has an area of A_tp = 1/8*π*6^2 = 9π/2 Crust is the remaining area. For the wide A_wc = 1/6*π*6^2 - 25π/6 = 11π/6 and for the tall A_tc = 1/8*π*7^2 - 36π/8 = 13π/8 Total food/enjoynment you're getting is f_w = (25+11c)/6 f_t = (36+13c)/8 Calculating the price per dollar for each gives us p_w = (25+11c)/6/1.5 = (25+11c)/9 p_t = (36+13c)/8/1.7 = (36+13c)5/68 Finally, lets see how much the crust enjoynment needs to be for each choice. (25+11c)/9 = (36+13c)5/68 68(25+11c) = 45(36+13c) 1700+748c = 1620+585c 80+163c = 0 c = -80/163 ~ -0.49 As we see, since the enjoynment needs to be a negative number (0 means no crust basically) so regardless of whether you like crust or not, you should get the wide piece.

You can vastly simplify since in calculating the area, pi is a common factor. Just square the length and divide by the number of slices you could slice (60 is 6 slices, 45 is 8 slices). You don't even have to consider price at that point because it will be apparent that the 7in pizza has marginally greater area but costs a lot more.

In this particular example, as long as one knows that a circle is 360° in totality, one doesn't even necessarily need to know the (pi)(r^2) formula in order to figure out the solution. 60° = 1/6 of 360° and 45° = 1/8. 1/6 of the 6-inch-side is 1/1 (or 8/8), and 1/8 of the 7-inch side is 7/8. Now, without doing any (pi)(r^2) calculations, we can already see that they are selling the 8/8-proportion slice for $1.50 which is both larger (in proportion) and cheaper than the 7/8-proportion slice which is being sold for $1.70. So one doesn't even have to complete the extra-step of dividing the two different proportions by their correlating prices to know that the cheaper slice also has a larger area-for-cost-ratio making it the obvious choice for anyone who wants to "get more bang for their buck".

Actually, it did, but not in the way you might think. 6" slice has 7.5 pieces of pepperoni @ cost of $1.50. 7" slice has 8.75 pieces of pepperoni @ $1.70: 6" = $1.5/7.5 = $0.20 per slice of pepperoni, 7" = $1.7/8.75 =$0.19 per slice of pepperoni...7" slice is more cost effective at a penny less per slice of pepperoni. Cost of making pizza [manhours] is same regardless, cheese & sauce are fairly comparable across the two; pepperoni is most expensive ingredient on the pie. 8) Area of slice may be larger, but you're getting a more expensive meat topping.

I simply figured how much each pizza would cost once you added each slice to equal 360*. A) 1.50 x 6 =$9 B) 1.70 X 8 = $13.60 Knowing that two more slices of A would still be less costly than B. However, if B was better quality and taste and there were only two people sharing the pizza B would be the better choice. Simply based on shared experience.

You don't need to think about the value of Pi when you're comparing two values like this. The volume of the slice on the left is 60*6^2*(some constant). The volume of the slice on the right is 45*7^2*(that same constant). Divide both sides by the unknown constant, divide both sides again by 15 degrees, and you come up with the very easy comparison between 4*6^2 and 3*7^2. You can do that in your head.

As the area of a circular sector grows linearly in the angle and quadratically in the radius, you can see that the second slice would have to cost 1.50*(45/60)*(7/6)^2 = $1.53, but it costs more so the first one is better value.

Another neat approach to this is to look at scale factor. The 60deg pizza is, 60/45 x 36/49 times bigger/smaller than the 45deg pizza. (smaller) Which comes out at about 2.08% less area. But the price of the smaller pizza is 13.33% cheaper. In other words, the 45deg pizza, costs 13.33% more currency, for only 2.08% more area.
@randomusernameCallin

From a Programming side, I recomment to see if you are comparing two values that requires Pi to find then leave the Pi to the end and see if you can ignore Pi. The goal is not to find the cost per area and to find the smaller cost per area. So the 60 degrees slice would be (1.50/6 or 0.25) * 1 / Pi and 45 Degree slice become (1.70 / 6.125 or 0 .27755) * 1/Pi since Pi is constant you just need to pick the smaller number which is 60 degree slice with 0.25 * 1/Pi.

Let’s say $1.5 is the standard price. To convert the left pizza to the right, $1.5*6=$9 since it’s 1/6 of a round pizza. Scale the size up of a 2 dimension shape, it will be $9*7*7/6/6=$12.25 . 45 degree is 1/8 of a round a round pizza so $12.25/8. Therefore the right one should cost $1.53125 according to the standard.

Assuming I did my math right, I found slice a to have an area of 6 pi in^2 and slice b to have an are of 6.125 pi in^2. Considering the price per slice, that resulted in $0.25 per pi square inches for slice a and about $0.28 per pi square inches of slice b which seem like more useful numbers in this context

Solution: Left is 1/6 of the full circle of π*6², as 60° * 6 = 360° Right is 1/8 of the full circle of π*7², as 45° * 8 = 360° Since both sides have π, we can cancel it. Left we have 6²/6 = 6 Right we have 7²/8 = 49/8 = 6 + 1/8 Divide both sides by 6, we get Left = 1 Right = 1 + 1/48 Multiply both sides with 1.5 Left = 1.5 Right = 1.5 + 1.5/48 = 1.5 + 3/96 ≅ 1.5 + 3/100 = 1.53 So the left side has better value, as the right side should only cost ~1.53, not 1.70

I compared the slices before watching the videos by simplifying the calculations. Since it's area calc, I squared the radius. And then the angle will determine a proportion, since it was 60o and 45o, I multiplied the first one by 4 and the second by 3. So: 4 x 6^2 = 144 w/e units for $1.5 3 X 7^2 = 147 w/e units for $1.7 The $1.50 slice is better

a great way to simpify pi calculations, is to treat pi like an unknown, and just leave pi as it is. 1st slice = 60/360 x pi x 6² = 1/6 x 36 x pi = 6 pi in² 2nd slice = 45/360 x pi x 7² = 1/8 x 49 x pi = 6.125 pi in² then calculate price per area, $1.50 is same as 150 cents (the answer is gonna be cents anyway so this helps you understand easier) so 150/6 pi = 25/pi cents per square inch 170/6.125 pi = 27.755/pi cents per square inch even without calculating pi = 3.14159..... you already know which one is is cheaper

The simplest way to view the problem is to use a scaling factor. 1. Assume the pizza's are equal thickness : inspection is assumed sufficient 2. The area is proportional to the square of the radius. 3. Each pizza is a part of a whole. 4. For the case (left) r^2 = 36 (radius = 6), divided by 6, (60 degree angle) giving a scaling factor of 6. For the case (right) r^2 = 49 (radius = 7), divided by 8, (45 degree angle) giving a scaling factor of 6 + (1/48) 5. For the prices of $1.50 and $1.70 respectively, the higher price is approximately 1/8 greater than the lower. Conclusion A . The pizza are the same area within the experimental bounds of noise : measurement inaccuracy is greater than 1/3 % : area is a red herring ((1/48) divided by 6, the scaling factor, gives a difference of (1/288)) B . If they are the same quality, only the price is significant C . Pick your preference, price for consumption, vice versa for charity.

You could also approximate this with ratios if you don't need exact answers. The angle of #1 is 4/3 that of #2 using angle * r ^ 2 leaves us with a ratio of 6^2 * 4/3 = 48 to 7^2 * 1 = 49, or 48 : 49. Furthermore, we can simplify the prices as an integer ratio of 15 : 17. So the ratio of price per area of the 2 pizzas is 15/48 : 17/49. This equates to roughly 0.3125 : 0.3469, or 1:1.1102, meaning that you pay 11% more per area for #2 than #1. #1 is more cost efficient and is the better deal. edit: removed accidental timestamps

Or... ~ 1/6 Pi 6^2 = 6 Pi ~ 1/8 Pi 7^2 = 6.125 Pi Option 1 : (6 Pi)/$1.50 = $0.25 per Pi ~ To provide the same value, the 7" slice would cost $1.533; as it actually costs $1.70, the 6" slice is clearly the superior value. Option 2 : $1.50 × 4 = $6 (making $ = Pi) ~ $1.70 × 4 = $6.80, which is clearly greater than 6.125; once again, the 6" slice is clearly the significantly better value. As this question is a simple comparison (which is the better value), all we need is a basic ratio between size and price. We don't even need to do precise calculations... Using Option 1, we know that the extra $0.20 at $0.25/Pi should provide 0.8 Pi more pizza for the same value vs the 0.125 Pi difference. There's no need to go any further in order to determine that the 7" slice offers less value than the 6" slice.

Objection: we don't know the length of the crust The ratio of crust to not crust will change depending on the length of the radius (as it is the furthest part from the center it will always have the largest increase in total area) and having an increased angle will add more crust as well (for instance a 60° slice will have 4/3rds the length of a 45°slice); so we can't determine which is the better deal until we also determine the area of crust for each pizza in relation to their total area as well.

You don’t even need pi to see which one is cheaper, you can leave it as it is and compare it later since there’s no subtraction or addition. A simple way to solve it is to go for the full pizza. With 60 degrees slices you need 6 slices to get a full circumference, while 45 requires 8. So the 6 inch pizza is 6*1’50$ and the 7 inch pizza is 8*1’70$. You don’t even have to do the multiplication to see which one is gonna be cheaper. And to get the optimal $/inch^2 you just plug in the area for the full circle, so you get one is (6*1’50)/(π6^2) which can be simplified to 1/(4π) $/sqr inch , and the other one (8*1’70)/(π7^2) which can be processed into 13’6/(49π) and then compare what is bigger 1/4 or 13’6/49 (which is easier than it seems because you only need to know if 13’6 times 4 is bigger or smaller than 49 (which it is) so you’d know immediately if it’s best value and you wouldn’t even need to know precisely the $/inch^2 nor a calculator. But alas, all of this is useless if the pizzas are different thicknesses or use differently priced ingredients.

Maybe the Second is the better deal, because you get less crust which has no topping. The topping is the valuable part of the Pizza ;)

The better deal for me is always going to be the more narrow slice. I hate wide pizza slices almost as much as I hate a thick crust. I will pay more to not be annoyed 🍕

My math skills are so bad that I got as far as figuring out that one pizza was $9 and the other was $13.60 without knowing how to apply that information or if it was even relevant.

Easy! - Slice "L" (left) has *x8/6* (60/45) as much angle (and thus *area)* as slice "R" (right). - R has *x7/6* as much radius as L, thus x(7/6)^2 as much *area.* - R has *x17/15* as much *cost* as L. So if we divide price-per-area (R) over price-per-area (L), whether it is greater (or less) than 1 will inform us which slice is cheaper by area. _Solve:_ price-per-area (R) / price-per-area (L) = (price R / area R) / (price L / area L) = price (R/L) * area (L/R) Notice that "price" and "area" are now expressed in ratios between the two slices. Thus: = price (R/L) * angle (L/R) * radius^2 (L/R) = 17/15 * (8/6 * (6/7)^2) = 17/15 * (48 / 49) it is obvious that 17/15 is farther from 1.0 than 48/49 is, therefore *L is cheaper by area!* But we can solve it anyway: = 17 * 48 / 15 * 49 = 17 * 16 / 5 * 49 = 272 / 245 > 1.0, thus R is more expensive by area than L. L is cheaper!

I prefer to do the area divided by the cost, because it basically tells you how much area of pizza you get for a dollar. In the first case it's 18.83/1.5 = 12.55 in^2 per dollar In the second case it's 19.25/1.7 = 11.32 in^2 per dollar The first case gives you more area per dollar, hence why it's better. This way also keeps it in line with how our caveman brains work, in that we consider the bigger number to be better :)

If first 23sm, and second 25sm 360/60=6 or 1/6 part of pizza 360/45=8 or 1/8 part of pizza S=пR^2 3,14 x 23 x 23 / 6 = 276,84mm = 27,6sm 3,14 x 25 x 25 / 8 = 245,31=24,5sm 1/6 > 1/8. If we change second radius - 30sm 3,14 x 30 x 30 / 8 = 353,25 = 35,325sm

My math is how many pieces of pepperoni am I getting over the other one. Which ever one has more I'm buying.
