Answer:

we need to determine the area of the whole pizza and then subtract the eaten portion.

The formula to calculate the area of a circle is A = πr², where A represents the area and r is the radius of the circle.

the diameter of the pizza is 16 inches, we can find the radius by dividing the diameter by 2:

radius (r) = diameter / 2 = 16 inches / 2 = 8 inches

A = πr² = π(8 inches)²

Now, let's calculate the remaining area after one-eighth of the pizza is eaten:

A eaten = A pizza / 8

A remaining = A pizza - A_eaten

A pizza ≈ 3.14 * (8 inches)² ≈ 3.14 * 64 inches² ≈ 201.06 square inches

A_eaten ≈ A_whole / 8 ≈ 201.06 square inches / 8 ≈ 25.13 square inches

A remaining ≈ A v pizza- A eaten ≈ 201.06 square inches - 25.13 square inches ≈ 175.93 square inches

Therefore, there are approximately 175.93 square inches of pizza remaining after one member ate one-eighth of the pizza.
