Question

Farmer Brown is prepping his circular garden for the new spring/summer season of vegetables. The garden has to be larger than 25 square feet. If the diameter of the garden is 10 cm, what is the area? Does the farmer have enough space to plant his vegetables? Explain.

Answer 1

The area is 78.5, the farmer does have enough space to plant his vegetables

Explanation:

To find the area, you need to use the formula, A=πr², (make sure the diameter is turned into the radius by dividing by 2, in this case, it's 5 as the radius)

Plug in your numbers, A= 3.14(5)²

A= 3.14(25)

The area is 78.5

So the farmer does have enough space to plant his vegetables since 78.5 is greater than 25
