Question

Design an algorithm to find and display the price of the pizza per square inch

Answer 1

The algorithm is as follows

1. Start
2. Read the price of unit Pizza, P
3. Read the Radius of Pizza, R
4. Area = 3.14 * R * R
5. Price Per Area = P/Area
6. Print Price Per Area
7. Stop

Step-by-step explanation:

The algorithm is self explanatory.

However, take note of the following

1. Price Per Square inch is calculated by dividing the price (P) of the pizza by its area
2. A pizza has a circular surface, so the area will be calculated using Area = πR²
3. So, the formula to calculate the required output is P/Area as shown in the algorithm above.
