Question

A 10" diameter pumpkin pie is cut into six equal servings.

What is the area of the top of each piece of pie?

Answer 1

So to get to degree you times 10X6

Answer 2

Have you memorized the formula for the area of a circle? I would use that. Then it seems each piece would be 1/6 of the total area.

Answer 3

mmm.... pumpkin pie.... :)

Answer 4

i thought u like tarts more. -_-

Answer 5

Geometry is hard plus if your home schooled

Answer 6

Try to find the area of the circle.

Answer 7

\[60/360*25 \]

Answer 8

you forgot the pi.

Answer 9

ya and that equal \[4.16666667\]

Answer 10

Thx for help

Answer 11

not so fast.... A= pi r^2
you need to multiply by pi (about 3.14 or 22/7)

Answer 12

I got these three choices
3.33inches
4.17inches
16.66inches

Answer 13

Well, first it should say square inches or \(inches^2 \) for the units.
The area for the entire pie is 3.14159*5*5= 78.54 sq in
1/6 of that (one piece) = 78.54/6= 13.09 sq in

Answer 14

I have computer work and i choose 4.17 and it show me that the correct answer

Answer 15

Out of curiosity, what program/school are you using?

Answer 16

Answer 17

Do you have access to a real person to show them this question? Unless the pumpkin pie is not round, that is not the correct answer, and you should ask somebody there to check this question. Otherwise you will have trouble learning this stuff....

Answer 18

Well i can always ask the math teacher

Answer 19

but in other way I wont need geometry later at least thats what i think

Answer 20

but thx for your help

Answer 21

First, if there is a problem it would be good for them to fix it (don't you think?) And learning this stuff is helpful, just the way learning how to dance or read is helpful. You might not notice, but you are learning how to think, and that is always a good thing to know how to do...

Answer 22

That's true
