Ever downsized your pizza order to save a little cash? A new video from AsapSCIENCE proves you’ve been doing it wrong.
It all comes down to a basic geometric equation from your nightmares your high school math class. The area of a circle is equal to pi times the radius squared.
According to that equation, a basic eight-inch pizza has an area of 50 square inches. While you might think a sixteen-inch pizza is twice as big as an eight-inch pizza, given that the diameter is two times bigger, the math tells us otherwise.
