Question

the formula for the cylindrical volume of an engine on a dragster is (pi/4)B^2s, where B is the inside diameter (the bore) and S is the distance that the piston moves from its highest position to its lowest position (the stroke). Following the order of operations, describe the steps you would take to simplify the formula.

Answer 1

\[\Large \left( \frac{ \pi }{ 4 } \right)B^2 S\]like this?

Answer 2

yea

Answer 3

I guess they want something like
Divide pi by 4, then multiply that by the square of B, and then multiply by S

Answer 4

what that is so confusing Dan

Answer 5

Idk how else to explain it...

Answer 6

im not that smart lol :P

Answer 7

lol there's no other way to explain the steps

Divide pi by 4,

then multiply by by the square of B,

then multiply by S

Answer 8

12.57 =pi/4

Answer 9

that looks like pi times 4. Not pi divided by 4

Answer 10

ooops lol

Answer 11

my bad *blushes* :)

Answer 12

haha it's okay

Answer 13

i feel so stupid now lmfao

Answer 14

Answer 16

idk how else to help... it says "Following the order of operations, describe the steps you would take to simplify the formula."
i think your answer is just this
Divide pi by 4, then multiply that by the square of B, and then multiply by S

thats all you need
