A cake has circumference of 25 1/7 inches. What is the area of the cake? Use 22/7 to approximate π. Round to the nearest hundredth. Enter your answer in the box.

Answer:

50.29 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the circumference we need to find the radius.

Since C = 2*pi*r, r = C / (2*pi).

Here, with C = 25  1/7 in, r = (25  1/7 in) / [ 2(22/7) ], or r = 4 in

The area of the cake is A = pi*r^2, or (here)  A = (22/7)(4 in)^2 = 50.29 in^2
