Answer:

The answer would be C: 51 and one third sq ft.

Explanation:

because the Area formula is pi x radius squared, we would first do 22/7 x 7/2. this equals 154 sq ft.

Next, we divide 154 sq ft by 6. this is because 7 is cut into 6 EQUAL pieces. the answer is now 25.67. now we multiply this by 2 and get 51.34. Thank you, have a splendid day! (Look up how to convert it :])

Good luck!

Answer:

C

Explanation:

r=7

area = π*7² = 22/7 * 7² =22*7

cut into 6 pieces equally

each = 22*7/6

2 of them = 2*22*7/6=22*7/3 =51 1/3
