When math suddenly gets relevant.

Hate to say it but if you're using your brain, then math is always relevant. That said I still hate most of math since it's difficult and often boring.
The problem is the situations that the problems use, they make things boring and make math seem unnecessary.
I once had a math book that had, in the beggining of every chapter, a situation in which its content was used in real life. All examples were from centuries long gone... :/
Math isn't so bad. Except algebra... damn ancient arabs. Doing the devil's work of marrying numbers and letters together.
THIS, is how math problems should be done.
Being somewhat good at math, my biggest issue with it always was how math problems seem to get out of their way to offer boring, uninteresting scenarios.
Also the 60º slice is a better deal. I... think. My math is pretty rusty atm.
also I kind of didn't properly calculate the slices' surface, actually forgot how to do that for that shape xD
One of them is 6*PI and the other is 6.125*PI. For one the price/area factor is 0.25*PI and for the other is 0.28*PI. Knowing which one will give you the better deal.
MATH RULES!
Correction price/area factor is 0.25/PI and 0.28/PI (wrote it wrong above).
But pizza has different areas. The 60deg slice has larger percentage of its area taken by crust. You didn't take that into account. :\
HAHAAAA, pizza aprooves anything !
