I think its D i know its right but i just want to confirm with you i think its D thought @SolomonZelman
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So the circle is inside the square, not outside?
OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):
Yes wats the answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You want to compare the areas of the circle and the square. The circle has radius 8, so the square must have sides of 16. Take the ratio of the area of the circle to the area of the square.
