Answer:

a) 18.84 cm

b) 28.26 cm²

Explanation:

We Know

Each pancake is a circle with a diameter of 6 centimeters.

a) Calculate the circumference of each pancake.

Circumference of circle = d · π

d = 6 cm

We Take

6 · 3.14 = 18.84 cm

So, the circumference of each pancake is 18.84 cm.

b) Calculate the area of each pancake.

Area of circle = r² · π

r = 1/2 · d

r = 1/2 · 6 = 3 cm

We Take

3² · 3.14 = 28.26 cm²

So, the area of each pancake is 28.26 cm².
