The formula for calculating the circumference of a circle is C = π * d, where C is the circumference and d is the diameter. Given that the circumference is 72.22 inches and using π = 3.14, we can solve for the diameter:
72.22 = 3.14 * d
d = 72.22 / 3.14
d ≈ 23 inches
Therefore, the diameter of the pizza is approximately 23 inches.
Answer: 23 inches
72.22 = 3.14 * d
d = 72.22 / 3.14
d ≈ 23 inches
Therefore, the diameter of the pizza is approximately 23 inches.
