The area and the amount of gravel are illustrations of proportions.

7 lb will cover an area of 1 square foot, while 315 lb will cover an area of 45 square feet.

The given parameters are:

252\ lb= 36ft^2

The number of pound for an area of <em>1 square foot </em>is calculated as follows:

x = 1ft^2

So, we have:

x = 1ft^2

252\ lb= 36ft^2

Cross multiply

x \times 36 = 252 \times 1

Divide both sides by 36

x = 7lb

The area to be covered with 315lb gravel is calculated as follows:

315lb = y

So, we have:

315lb = y

252\ lb= 36ft^2

Cross multiply

y \times 252 = 36 \times 315

y \times 252 = 11340

Divide both sides by 252

y = 45

Hence, 7 lb will cover an area of 1 square foot, while 315 lb will cover an area of 45 square feet.

Fofino [41]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the area of a circle is:

\pir^{2}

Where "r" is the radius of the circle.

In this case, the radius is 2, and as per what is given in this problem (what the problem asks one to use), pi is rounded down to 3.

The equation will be:

3 * 2^2

Simplify, remember the order of operations:

3 * 4
