An IT guy from India went to the US, and like most of his friends, he wanted to enjoy *Pizza* at a nice restaurant . . .
He ordered a *9-inch Pizza*.
After a while, the waiter brought *two 5-inch pizzas*
And said, the 9-inch pizza was *_not_* available and he was giving him *two 5-inches Pizzas* instead,
and that he was getting 1 inch more for free!
Our guy politely requested the waiter to put him through to the restaurant owner.
The Indian gave him the mathematical formula to calculate the area of a circle.
Circle Area = *π r²*
where *π = 3.1415926*,
*r* is the *radius* of the circle.
So, a *9-inch circle area* = *63.62 sq.in.*
while
a *5-inch circle area* is *19.63 sq.in.*
The *two 5-inch circle areas* add up to *39.26 sq.in*.
Our guy said that even if he gave three pizzas, he'd still lose-out.
"How can you say you are giving me an extra inch for free?"
The owner was speechless.
He finally gave him *4 pizzas*.
Pl advise children to take their Maths seriously!
