A 14-inch pizza, as you might guess, measures 14 inches, or approximately 35.5 centimeters in
diameter. To put it into perspective, it's about the size of a standard round serving tray. This size is
often considered a large in many pizza places.
Now, let's talk about the area of the pizza, because that's what really matters when it comes to how
much pizza goodness you're getting. The area of a 14-inch pizza is about 154 square inches. This is
calculated using the formula for the area of a circle (Ï€r²), where r is the radius of the pizza (half the
diameter, so 7 inches for a 14-inch pizza).
In terms of servings, a 14-inch pizza is typically cut into 8-10 slices, depending on the pizzeria. This
makes it a great size for a small group of 3-4 people, or for 2 very hungry pizza lovers. Of course, the
number of people a 14-inch pizza can serve can vary depending on individual appetites and what else
you're serving alongside the pizza.
The weight of a 14-inch pizza can vary greatly depending on the thickness of the crust and the amount
and type of toppings. A thin crust 14-inch pizza with light toppings might weigh around 500-600
grams, while a 14-inch pizza with a thicker crust and generous toppings could weigh over a kilogram.
So, whether you're planning a small party or just have a big appetite, a 14-inch pizza is a delicious and
satisfying choice that offers plenty of pizza to enjoy.
