Answer:

The area of flour tortilla is:

113.04 square inches.

Explanation:

The flour tortilla is in the shape of a circle.

Hence we need to find the area of as circle whose diameter is 12 inches.

As we know that the diameter and radius are related as:

Diameter=2×Radius.

This implies,

12=2×Radius

⇒ Radius=6 inches.

The area of circle is given as:

Area=π×(Radius)²

=3.14×6²

=113.04 square inches.

Hence, the area of flour tortilla is:

113.04 square inches.
