This sounds like a joke I heard once but I think 11 inch curved sections of track was replaced by something...

I think it should take 16 pieces.

Depends on who is making the track. The manufacturer makes a circle with 11" radius, then divides it up into however many pieces they want.

into 6 slices. I can't eat
12 slices...

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.

If we're talking Atlas code 80 track then it is one package (six sections) per semi circle. It's also available in half sections, so you'd need 24 of those for a whole circle.
