To work this out you must work out the area of the pan it was meant to be baked in, and the total area of the pan(s) that you wish to bake the cake in. If there is a significant difference in these two figures, you need to adapt the quantity of the recipe that you are making (i.e. you may need to make 1.5 times the recipe etc...) in order to fit the pans that you wish to use.
Area of loaf pan = lengh x width
Area of circular tins= pi x radius^2 (radius squared). Radius is distance from centre of tin to the outer edge (4.5 inches in this case).
Any baking recipe can be made in a different sized pan so long as the areas are similar (normal baking time may not apply; just keep an eye on it whist it's in the oven).
Yes - the surface area of the first dish is 77sq inches and of the second 81 sq inches so the difference is not great.
You may anticipate minor variations in the height to which a cake would rise or a difference in cooking time before the cake is properly cooked in the middle.
If you there is a big variation between the size of cake you want to make and the size given in the recipe then it is a simple matter to increase or decrease the volume of the ingredients you use as long as you adjust them all in the same proportions. And, as above, you must adjust the baking time accordingly, too.

If it is a side dish, 6 -8 people could get a small serving.
Most store bought cake mixes give you the option of using 2 round (8 or 9 in) cake pans or a single 9X13 in cake pan. The baking times will differ, but you will get the same delicious results.
A 9x13" cake will feed about 45 people (assuming that the cake has two layers, each layer is about 2" in height, and the slices are 1.5x2" in size).
4.5 x 6.5
a 9x13 pan is rectangular a loaf pan is rectangular. There are many.
Well the factors of 117 are: 1, 3, 9, 13, 39, and 117 itself. Therefore: 1x117 = 117 3x39 = 117 9x13 = 117
the 9X13 holds 3 quarts
If the given dimensions are in inches then 9 times 13 = 117 square inches
First, 10x13 = 130. So, a number 13 less than this is 130 - 13 = 117. Put simply 9x13 instead of 10x13 ie 13 less. the answer is 117
the 9X13 holds 3 quarts
You can but the mixture will be less thickly spread in the 9 x 13 pan. You may want to increase the amount of batter that you use (assuming you're making a cake or something that spreads to fill the tin).
