Answer:

Round pizza

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the Round Pizza =[tex]49 \pi[/tex] square inches.

Area of the Square Pizza = 49  square inches.

Recall that: [tex]\pi =\frac{22}{7}[/tex]

Therefore:

Area of the Round Pizza =[tex]49 \pi=49X\frac{22}{7}=154 \:Square \:Inches[/tex]

Since 154 is greater than 49(154>49)

If Steve wants to eat more crust, he will buy the round pizza.
