Answer:

r = 2.55

Explanation:

The formula for finding the radius of a circle using the area is r = √A/π

with the r being the radius. the A being the area, and the π being pi (we'll use 3.14).

So the equation should look like this:

r = √(20.4/3.14)

Find the quotient of 20.4/3.14 and round to the nearest tenth

r = √6.5

Find the square root and round to the nearest hundredth

r = 2.55
