Assuming There is ONLY ONE CORRECT ANSWER,

The probability of her guessing the answer without ruling out the choices is 1/5.

if 3 choices are ruled out, then 1 out of the remaining two is right, which gives the probability 1/2

now, 1/5 = 20% , while 1/2 = 50%.

Therefore her probability of getting the correct answer improves by 30% [ not much in a REAL test though :P ]

Umm, I don't feel like typing (too lazy and tired to do that lol) so I will attach a written file.

BTW-

Radius is HALF the Diameter.

Diameter is that straight line that goes across the center of the circle.

Radius is basically a line from the center of the circle to any of the side of the circle.

Circumference is basically the perimeter of the circle, or the border or it. It is the Diameter times pi (it said to use 3.14 for pi). It can also be 2 times the Radius times pi (3.14) (since Radius is half the Diameter).

Area is the region inside the circle. Area is the Radius squared (to the power of 2, whatever) times pi (simplified as 3.14).

Okie, now the answers.

^^^Too lazy to put the unit lol.
