The closest answer is 95 square inches. Here is why. You can find the area of the rectangle by multiplying the length by the width. This would be 15 x 5 = 75 square inches. The area of the whole circle that is created when you put both halves together would be found by multiplying 3.14 x 2.5 in (the radius) x 2.5 in. This answer is about 20 square inches. The combined area is approximately 95 square inches.
