\[A_{\circ} = \pi r^2\]\[A_{\circ} = \frac{22}{7}(2)^2\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so what is the answer

Where's your calc?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do i need scientific or regular cal to do this
hero (hero):
Either would work for this computation.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
hero (hero):
Usually, though, if you use a fraction for pi, it means to put the result in fraction form.

The computation above simplifies to
\[A_\circ \approx \frac{88}{7} \]
But 88/7 is a improper fraction so you'll have to write it as a mixed fraction.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so would that be 25 and one seventh?
hero (hero):
Um...no
hero (hero):
I'll help you out a bit...
\[A_\circ \approx \frac{88}{7} = \frac{84 + 4}{7} = \frac{84}{7} + \frac{4}{7}\]
hero (hero):
There's a particular reason why I did that. Maybe you can figure it out.
