    The piece that young Marty indulges in will be one-eigth the area of the entire cookie, since there are 8 equal pieces.

    What is the area of the entire cookie cake?

    The area of a circle is π*r²

    The diameter is 16 inches, so the radius is 8 inches.

    Area = π * 8²

    Area = 64 π in²

    The entire cookie has an area of 64 π in².

    To find the area of Marty's piece, divide this number by 8:

    64 π in² : 8 = 8 π in²

    Answer is B
