You are working as a sewer. A client has hired you to make circular tablecloths for a wedding. Each tablecloth needs to have

a radius of 3.5 feet. To order material, you need to know the area of each tablecloth

What is the area, to the nearest square foot, of one tablecloth?

11

12

22

35

38

38 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

A = πr²

To get r² multiply 3.5*3.5. Then multiply by 3.14 for π. That's about 38.48

Caution: This is unrealistic unless the sewer is planning to assemble scraps to construct the circular table cloths. Cloth is sold in in lengths by yards. Each tablecloth is going to be 7 feet across. The pieces will come out of a square area of 49 square feet. (or assembled from two half circles, each cut from a length of about 2 3/8 yards)

Just trying to keep it real!
