Question

I need some help understanding what exactly the question means..

Answer 1

78.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The square has a side length of 16 units.

`\begin{gathered} \text{Area of the Square = }16^2 \\ =256\text{ square units} \end{gathered}`

The circle on the other hand has a radius of 8 units.

`\begin{gathered} \text{Area of the circle}=\pi*8^2 \\ =64\pi\text{ square units} \end{gathered}`

Thus, the probability that the dart hits a point in the circle is:

`\begin{gathered} =\frac{\text{Area of the circle}}{\text{Totl Area of the Square}}=(64\pi)/(256) \\ =0.785 \\ =78.5\% \end{gathered}`
