Similar to the description of the screen size by the diagonal line of a screen, the size of a round pizza is described by its diameter. A 16-inch pizza is one that is round and its diameter is 16 inches. Using area to describe a pizza is more reasonable since a pizza is kind a flat. But let’s stick to this common description for now. Sherry wants to order a 16-inch pizza for her office, but is told by the pizza restaurant that only 8-inch pizzas are available. How many 8-inch pizzas does Sherry have to order if she wants the combined area of the smaller pizzas to be the same as the area of a 16-inch pizza?
