Please help. Pizzas are named by the measure of their diameter. If an 16-inch pizza were covered with toppings, how many square inches of dough would be covered. Use 3.14 for pi.

Well assuming there's no crust... and the topping covers the whole surface of the pizza, you would only need to find the area of the pizza (assuming circle)so...

$$Area =\Pi r ^{2}$$

If the diameter is 16, then the radius is have of that. Use 3.14 as pi and there's your area.
