2464(area) when 22/7 =pi
2461.76(area) when pi =3.14
right ?

answer is different because value of pi inputted is different.
OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):
@ziqbal103
is it clear now ?

yes when we use 22/7 then we get answer 2646, but when we use 3.14 *28square then we don't get the same answer

but what answer should we prefer in some questions of oxford book they are using the value of pi 22/7 and in some questions 3.14.
OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):
very good.
OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):
if the value of pi is given as take pi=3.14
then use pi=3.14 in your answer
if the value of pi is given as take pi=22/7
then use pi=22/7 in your answer
OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):
it it it said round your answer to 2 decimal digits then take pi=3.14
