Question 606934
I have a math problem where pi=22/7 and I have to find the area of a circle using pi with a diameter of 5ft 3in. Please show me how to find the area?
:
Convert 5 ft 3 in to 5.25 ft
This is the diameter, we need the radius: 5.25/2 = 2.625 ft
:
Area of a circle: 
{{{A = pi*r^2}}}
therefore
A = {{{22/7}}}*{{{2.625^2}}}; in square ft
