Using 2 straight cuts from the same starting point on the perimeter you cut a circular pizza into 3 pieces of equal areas. However, each of the 2 identical pieces has more crust than the middle piece!



A slice with larger crust has X% more crust than the slice with smaller crust.

Assuming the crust of the pizza is 1-dimensional, find X to the nearest integer.
 
x is about 143
