A 12 inch diameter pizza is cut into 8 equal pieces. What is the area of each piece?

First, find the area of the whole pizza. The formula to find the area of a circle is:

pi x the radius squared

3.14159 x 6 squared

3.14159 x 36

Area = 113.10 square inches

Now, calculate the area of one piece:

113.10 / 8 = 14.14 square inches
