Question

What area of the clock is not covered with clock face in square inches

Answer 1

Hello again,
We know that the clock has rectangular shapes, and the clock face is circle.
Area of the clock is:
15×8=120 square inches
To find the area of the circle:
πr^2. However, we did not know the radius yet, but we had circumference of the circle which is 6 inches
C=2πr
6=2πr
Divided 2 from both side
3=πr
Divide π or 3.14 from both side
r≈1 inches
Area of the clock face is:
1×1×3.14
≈3.14.
To find the area of the clock that does not covered with clock face take:
120-3.14=116.86 square inches. Hope it help!
