Answer 4

So to do this question we first need to find the area of the circle
A=(3.14)r^2
Where r=8

Answer 5

is that 8 times two

Answer 6

8 to the power of 2 so it will be 64 so times that by pi

Answer 7

okay

Answer 8

200.96

Answer 9

right?

Answer 10

Yes so next step is to find the area of the square we know that the half of the side length is 8 so the whole side is 16 so using the 16 as the length find the area of the square

Answer 11

okay

Answer 12

so.....

Answer 13

For a square area is A=LW
So A=16x16
A=256

Answer 14

So the circle takes up an 200.96 of the squares 256 so that's the probability
200.96/256 will give you some number multiply that number by 100 to get your percentage
