OpenStudy (unknownunknown):

Ok gabby, so a few things here. First of all, how did you get 0.840 by multiplying 3.14 * 8?

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

i got 0.840 by doing 3.14 x 8 (i doubled 4)

OpenStudy (unknownunknown):

So if you put 3.14 * 8 into your calculator, what answer do you get?

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

\[0.840\]

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

with a line on top of the zero going forever

OpenStudy (unknownunknown):

Your thinking is correct, 3.14 * 8 is the correct equation. But the answer to that isn't 0.840. Are you using any other buttons?

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):
