The circumference of a circle is 44 inches. What is the area? (Use 22 for pie.)

To solve for the circumference of a circle, you need to know the equation: 2πr (Normally, pi is 3.14 but since we're supposed to use 22, so be it).

The equation for the area, on the other hand, is πr^2. In order to solve for the area, we need to solve for the radius first.

Since we know the circumference is 44 inches, we can form an equation:

2πr = 44

Since π is 22:

2 (22) r = 44

Simplify:

44r = 44

Divide both sides by 44:

r = 1

Now that we know the radius, we can input it into the equation for the area.

πr^2 = π*1^2 = π*1

Since π is 22:

22*1 = 22

The area of the circle is 22 in^2.
