It is edge (or circumference) per dollar you want, not area in this case
so divide each circumference by the cost to find the edge per dollar.

(I do not agree that the edge is the best, but so be it)

1.
C = pi * d
C = 3.14 * 12
C = 37.68

9.75 / 37.68 = $0.259 per per inch

Follow the same procedure for the medium and large pizzas to find the cost per inch of circumference.

2. Into how many pieces will you divide each pizza?
