Question 42140: Compute the radius of a circle that has an area of 125cm2. Express your answer to the
nearest 10th of a cm (centimeter). You may use 3.14 as an approximation for P (pi). Do NOT enter the units.
THE ANSWER I GOT WAS 6.3 CM. BUT ASKS FOR ANSWER IN NEAREST 10TH OF A CM. IS MY ANSWER CORRECT, OR WOULD IT BE 63.0 CM.

125=(pi)r^2
divide by 3.14
39.808=r^2
sqrt both sides
6.3=r
6.3 to the nearest tenth is 6.3
ya your right!
