    Step-by-step explanation:

    The pizza shop is offering two pizzas for the same price.

    The round one is 12 inches in diameter. To know the size of the round pizza, we will determine its area. It is the same as the area of a circle which is expressed as

    Area = πr^2

    Radius, r = diameter / 2 = 12/2 = 6 inches.

    π = 3.14

    Area = 3.14 * 6^2 = 3.14 * 36 = 113.04 inches square.

    To know the size of the square pizza, we will apply the formula for a square

    Area = l^2

    Since one side is 10 inches,

    The area is 10.5 * 10.5 = 110.25 inches square.

    It means that the round pizza is bigger. She should by the round pizza
