Question

A cake has circumference of 2517

inches. What is the area of the cake? Use 227
to approximate π. Round to the nearest hundredth. Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

Below

Explanation:

Circumference = pi * d = 22/7 * d

2517 = 22/7 * d ( are you sure 2517 is correct??)

d = 2517 * 7/22 = 800.86 inches ( a VERY large pie)

radius = 1/2 * d = 400.43 inches

Area = pi r^2

= 22/7 * (400.43)^2 = 503 943 in^2
