Answer:

Explanation:

The Letter pi (π) = 3.14

The radius (r) = the diameter / 2

The diameter = 8

the radius (r)= d/2 = 8/2 = 4

The Area = 3.14 * 4*4

But they tell you to use 3 and not 3.14.

So the area = 3 * 4 * 4

The area = 48

By the way, if you are interested, the Bible uses 3 for π and not 3.14
