Question

Two circular pizzas have radii in the ratio 2:3. If the smaller pizza has an area of 100π cm², what is the area of the larger pizza?

A.

265π cm²

B.

225π cm²

C.

215π cm²

D.

250π cm²

Correct option is B

Given :

Radii of two circular pizzas are in the ratio 2 : 3.
Area of the smaller pizza =100π cm2 100\pi \text{ cm}^2​​

Formula Used :
Area of a circle
A = πr2\pi r^2​​
For circles, area ratio = (radius ratio)2^2​​

Solution :

Radius ratio = 2:3

Area ratio = 22:32=4:9^2 : 3^2 = 4 : 9​​

Let area of smaller pizza = 4x

4x = 100π00\pi​​
x = 25π5\pi​​

Area of larger pizza
= 9x = 9×25π=225π9 \times 25\pi = 225\pi cm²​
