The  circumference of a circle is  175.84   yards.   What  is the circle's  area?


Use  3.14 for pi .

 

I worked the problem but the answer I got seems ridiculous. I got 2461.76

First, let's find out the diameter by dividing the area by pi.

175.84/3.14 is 56.

The formula for the area of a circle is pi*(radius^2).

The diameter is twice the length of the radius. 56/2=28.

28 squared times 3.14 is 2461.76.

Yes, your answer is correct.
