Due, check your math - I did it a 'different' way - normalizing to the square - using diameter (in effect - using ratios, rather than 'absolute calculations' - ratios are constant whether one uses pi(e), radius, or diameter - it all drops out in the wash.)


ie. 10*10=100 8.90/100*100 vs 42*42 for 51.09 times 100. (51.09/1764*100)


The radius of a 42" pie is 21" not 22".

LMBO - "DINE IN ONLY !!!"

Too funny. Musta had some problems with the delivery guys and gals on that one, eh ?

Why am I not surprised that you actually calculated the number of 10" pies in a 42-incher? If you tell me that you used a slip-stick, I'm gonna plotz! LOL!

Actually, I figure each 10" pie is about $3.18, not $2.90.

Check your math. The radius of a 42" pie is 21" not 22".

56.09/(22/5)² ≈ 2.90
56.09/(21/5)² ≈ 3.18

I wonder if they picked 42" because that's the answer to life, the universe, and everything.
