Well, it looks like you might want to make sure that you are doing the area formula right. 

If the perimeter is 60 in. and the formula for the perimeter of a regular hexagon is 6r, that means that you can figure out the radius by dividing by 6.

Now, the area is a bit harder. You did get it right :)

I agree with @campbell_st that you might want to round. I just thought that merited an explanation.
