You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If r=1 the square is 2 by 2 = 4 sq units
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "The area of the circle = \"pi%2Ar%5E2\" = pi units
\n" ); document.write( "The unwatered part is:
\n" ); document.write( "4 - pi sq units
\n" ); document.write( "=~ 0.86 sq units.
\n" ); document.write( "0.86/4 = 0.215
\n" ); document.write( "=~ 21.5%
\n" ); document.write( "Your answer is correct, and it's the same %age for any size square.
