Please Help Find the area of a circle with radius,
r
= 87cm.
Give your answer rounded to 3 SF.

Step-by-step explanation:

so, to repeat, the radius r of the circle is 87 cm.

the area of a circle is

pi×r²

so, in our case

A = pi×87² = pi×7569 = 23,778.7148... cm²

so, how to give this answer with only 3 significant figures ?

as you can see, there are already 5 figures before the decimal point.

3 attempts :

1. 3 significant figures after the decimal point : 23778.715 cm²

2. scientific notation with 3 SF : 2.38×10⁴ cm²

3. converting to m² (1m² = 10000cm²) : 2.38 m²
