You can compare areas with just r^2 you don't even need pi. So the math is easy.
A pizza is larger than two of another just before it hits 1.5 times the radius (sqrt 2 times, to be exact, about 1.41). So if the radius is 1.5 times bigger, like in the OP, you always know it's more than twice the area.
Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
