Question

one circular table has a diameter of 8ft, and another circular table has a diameter of 12ft. how much greater is the area of the larger table? Round to the nearest whole number. about 31ft2 about 6ft2 about 13ft2 about 63ft2

Answer 1

Answer: 63 ft^2

Explanation:

the formula for the area of a circle is A = π r ^2. the radius (r) is 1/2 of the diameter.

first, we'll plug in the radius of table #1 into the equation (A = π 4 ^2) and get an answer of 50.27 ft^2. then plug in radius of table #2 (A = π 6 ^2) and get 113.1 ft^2. now find the difference of the areas by subtracting (113.1 - 50.27) to get an answer of 62.83 ft^2. which will round up to 63 ft^2.
