Start with the formula for the area of a circle:
\n" ); document.write( "\"A+=+%28pi%29r%5E2\" but you want this in terms of the diameter, and \"r+=+D%2F2\", so...
\n" ); document.write( "\"A+=+%28pi%29%28D%2F2%29%5E2\" Substitute D = 25 meters and \"pi+=+3.14\" as an approximation.
\n" ); document.write( "\"A+=+%283.14%29%2825%2F2%29%5E2\" evaluate.
\n" ); document.write( "\"A+=+3.14%28625%2F4%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"A+=+3.14%28156.25%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28A+=+490.625%29\" square meters.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
