Real world math problem for you /sci/.
You order a pizza, and the pizza place estimates 210 calories per slice (in the traditional wheel slice) for a large 14" pizza with 8 slices. You only have 630 calories left for the day on your diet. However, when you arrive at the pizza place to pick it up, you discover that they have instead sliced it into 9 pieces in a non-traditional box slice, like so, instead of the wheel slice. Assume the pizza employee is very accurate and all four cuts are equidistant such that if the pizza were a square, every slice would have the same area.
Which slices should be chosen from the grid to get closest to 630 calories without going over?
