Question

The diameter of a circle is 22 miles. What is the circle's area? Use 3.14 for pi.. Single choice.

Answer 1

Answer:

379.94 mi²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle can be figured out with this formula: πr² (3.14 is π here, as it says in the directions).

We know the diameter is 22 miles. Divide that by 2 to get a radius of 11 miles.

The equation now becomes

3.14(11²)

11 squared is 121.

3.14(121)

I recommend splitting the 121 into 100, 20, and 1.

(3.14 * 100) + (3.14 * 20) + (3.14 * 1)

Multiply 3.14 by 100, 20, and 1.

314 + 62.8 + 3.14

Add 314 and 62.8.

376.8 + 3.14

Add 376.8 and 3.14

379.94 mi² is the area of a circle with a 22-mile diameter.
