HELP

I need to find the nearest tenths in these 6 questions and I don’t really know how, and can you also explain how you did or what you multiply.

Answer:

5. 50.3 m²

6. 113.1 cm²

7. 102.1 yards²

8. 50.3 yards²

9. 452.2 ft²

10.379.8 ft²

Explanation:

Area of a circle = nr²

The circumference of a circle = 2nr

n = pi = 22/7

r = radius

the diameter is the straight line that passes through the centre of a circle and touches the two edges of the circle.

A radius is half of the diameter

radius = diameter / 2

5. (22/7) x 4² = 50.3 m²

6. (22/7) x 6² =113.1 cm²

7. radius = 11.4/2 = 5.7 yards

(22/7) x 5.7² =102.1 yards²

8. radius = 8/2 = 4 yards

(22/7) x 4² = 50.3 yards²

9. 2nr = 75.4 yards

2 x (22/7) x r = 75.4

to find r, divide both sides of the equation by 2 and 7/22

r = 12 ft

Area = (22/7) x 12² = 452.2 ft²

10. 2nr = 69.1 yards

2 x (22/7) x r = 69.1

to find r, divide both sides of the equation by 2 and 7/22

r = 10.99 ft²

Area = (22/7) x 10.99² = 379.8 ft²

the tenth is the first number after the decimal place. To convert to the nearest tenth, look at the number after the tenth (the hundredth). If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the tenth figure. If this is not the case, add zero
