Answer: 82.5 inches
Step-by-step explanation: We know that each plantar has a base of 5.5 by 1 2/3. So if we multiply 5.5 by 1 2/3 we can get 9.166666667. However, there is 9 planters because 3 times 3 is 9. So if we multiply 9.166666667 by 9 we will get 82.5 inches
A≈50.27cm²
Using the formulas
A=πr2
d=2r
Solving forA
A=1
4πd2=1
4·π·82≈50.26548cm²
