know is ‘FOOD’. Maths is related food in any way we could
think of and can do of . The connection of food and Maths
starts when we are a small child. If you may still remember the

to teach us Maths. So in this presentation you will see some
facts which relates Maths and food together.
3. 1. Symmetry In Food Items
2. Ratio In Food Items
3. Pi (Used In Pie )
4. Pizza (Pi × z × z × a)
5. Salads (Pyramid)

5. 1.KIWI Symmetry:- If we observe its
pattern of its seeds and the gap between
the seeds forms an symmetrical shape
1 2. APPLE Symmetry:- Apple with an
2
interesting shape is symmetrical with 2
symmetrical lines.
3 3. RAJMA:-Rajma with kidney shaped
figure is symmetrical if cut from center
though it doesn’t have any vertices

:5
8. Due to heavy weight or illness u may have heard of balanced diet. But have u all ever
thought that how a diet is created? A diet that too consumption of food is created with
the help of mathematics. Which is used to determine the proportion of food items it can

picture the symbol and the
value of pi imprinted over
the actual eating pie
