Which chef made the largest pizza?

1 answer

To determine which chef made the largest pizza, we need to compare the diameters of the pizzas.

Looking at the measurements in column 2, we can convert the fractional measurements to decimals for easier comparison:

- Thirteen and five-eighths = 13.625 inches
- Fourteen and three-sevenths = 14.4285 inches
- Thirteen and seven-ninths = 13.7778 inches
- Fourteen and two-fifths = 14.4 inches

Comparing the decimals, we can see that the largest pizza has a diameter of 14.4285 inches. Therefore, the chef who made the largest pizza is Megan.
