MOD Pizza

Mr. P's favorite pizza place is MOD Pizza, which serves thin crust and lets you choose any toppings that you want for one price.

When Mr. and Mrs. P go to MOD Pizza, Mr. P orders an eleven inch radius pizza and Mrs. P orders the six inch pizza.

They decide to share the pizzas equally, but Mrs. P eats all of her pizza.   What fractional part of Mr. P's pizza should she get so that they each have the same number of square inches of pizza?
