You can put this solution on YOUR website! You have a target with a 10 in radius and the bullseye has a 4 inch diameter. What is the probability you will hit the bullseye?

It's a function of the 2 areas.
Bullseye area = 4pi sq inches
Total area = 100pi sq inches
--> 4/100 = 1/25

Not a good problem.
The probability is actually dependent on how the dart (or whatever) is thrown.
And, it could land anywhere, not necessarily on the target at all.
People who don't know what they're talking about should not write math books.
Or any books.
