1256=pir^2
\n" ); document.write( "1256=3.14*x^2
\n" ); document.write( "x^2=1256/3.14
\n" ); document.write( "x^2=400
\n" ); document.write( "x=sqrt400
\n" ); document.write( "x=20 in. is the radius
\n" ); document.write( "1256+12*20*x=2696
\n" ); document.write( "240x=2696-1256
\n" ); document.write( "240x=1440
\n" ); document.write( "x=1440/240
\n" ); document.write( "x=6 leafs will be needed.
