Answer:

About 28.27 inches² per slice

Explanation:

First, we will find the area of the pizza. Since it is a pizza, we will assume it is a circle and will use the formula for area of a circle.

24-inch diameter / 2 = 12-inch radius

A=πr²

A=π(12)²

A ≈ 452.39 inches²

Now, since the pizza is cut into 16 slices, we will divide the total area by 16.

452.39 inches² / 16 ≈ 28.27 inches² per slice
