OpenStudy (anonymous):

why didnt u medal me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

find the area of each

OpenStudy (anonymous):

subtract the larger area from the smaller

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@liana1026 why

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then take the ratio of the difference of the areas to the total area that is all

OpenStudy (anonymous):

actually i should have said "subtract the smaller from the larger" sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why did @Study_together get medal i did two problems @liana1026

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does anyone know the answer pleaseeeeeeee

OpenStudy (study_together):

Remember area of a circle is \[A=\pi r ^{2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

36%

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Since the area of a circle is related to the square of the radius, just square both radii. Then divide the smaller number by the larger number and multiply by 100. That gives you what percentage of the area of the large circle is the area of the small circle. Then subtract that percentage from 100%.

thanks

OpenStudy (study_together):

Give him/her the explanation NO DIRECT ANSWERS

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5*5*3.14=78.5 4*4*3.14=50.24 50.24/78.5=.64 1-.64=.36 so 36%

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

4^2 = 16 5^5 = 25 16/25 * 100 = 64% 100% = 64% = 36%
