20250117 Fozzie's Friday Funnies # 134

Fozzie: “I’m here getting my supper with my high school math teacher, Mr. Al Gebraugh, and he told me that the name of my food is mathematically calculated!”

Chef Cal Q. Less: “I used to teach math, but I kneaded the dough. So I became a chef.”

Al: “You remember the formula for calculating the volume of a cylinder? We look at a regular pizza as one big, huge but flat cylinder and apply the volume formula of Volume equals the square of the radius times pi, times the height of the cylinder."

Fozzie: “That’s right! So we let Z equal the radius of our pizza, square it, then multiply it by the height the pizza, which we’ll let the letter ‘a’ represents, then multiply that by pi, which is 3.141592653589,,,”

Al: “Okay, Fozzie! We get the idea. So, once we calculate pi times Z times Z to get the square area of the circle, we then multiply that times ‘a’ to get the total volume of that pizza.”

Fozzie: “And that is how we get the name 'Pizza'! But all this talk is making me hungry!”
