You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let the radius be denoted by \"+r+\" then:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+area=pi%2Ar%5E2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+circumference=2pi%2Ar+\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "area is 3 times greater than the circumference? So
\n" ); document.write( "\"+area+=+3%2Acircumference+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+pi%2Ar%5E2+=+3%2A2pi%2Ar+\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We can cancel a factor of \"+pi+\" giving:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+r%5E2+=+6r+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+r%5E2+-+6r+=+0+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+r%28r-6%29+=+0+\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Giving two solutions: \"r=0\" or \"r=6\" of which only \"r=6\" is relevant to problem.\r
