Huey's Hip Pizza sells two sizes of square pizzas: a small pizza that measures 9 inches on a side and costs $10, and a large pizza that measures 14 inches on a side and costs $20. If two friends go to Huey's with $30 apiece, how many more square inches of pizza can they buy if they pool their money than if they each purchase pizza alone? Pick one.
A) 5 square inches
B) 10 square inches
C) 15 square inches
D) 25 square inches
E) 34 square inches

Rationale: in the first case each can buy one pizza of $ 10 and one pizza of $ 20 . in square inches that would be ( 9 * 9 = 81 ) for the small pizza and ( 14 * 14 = 196 ) for the large pizza . in total sq inches that would be ( 81 + 196 ) * 2 = 554 sq inches . in the second case if they pool their money together they can buy 3 large pizzas . in terms of square inches that would be 3 * 196 = 588 sq inches . hence , the difference is 34 square inches more ( 588 - 554 ) . the correct answer is e
