Answer 2

56.6 square yards.

Explanation:

Given:

A fountain in the park has two circular pools that are the same size.

Question asked:

What is the total area of the pools if the radius is 3 yards ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the area of a circular pool.

As we know:

`Area\ of\ circle=\pi r^(2)`

`=(22)/(7) *(3)^(2) \\ \\ =(22)/(7)*9\\ \\ =(198)/(7) \\ \\ =28.28\ square\ yards`

Area of circular pool nearest tenth = 28.3 square yards

Now, as given that both pools are of same size.

Total area of the pools = 28.3 square yards + 28.3 square yards

= 56.6 square yards.

Thus, the total area of the pools are 56.6 square yards.
