I don't know. An easy way to figure it out would be to measure the
capacity of both (pour measured water into both pans) and figure from
that. If the 9x3 is 3 quarts (I think that's what the Pyrex 9x3 pan
volume is) and the 10" skillet is 2 quarts (seems reasonable; my 3 quart
saute pan is 12" diameter), then you're right on at 1.5x.
