A flower garden is shaped like a circle. Its diameter is 40yd. A ring-shaped path goes around the garden. Its outer edge is a circle with diameter 48yd.
The gardener is going to cover the path with sand. If one bag of sand can cover 6yd^2, how many bags of sand does the gardener need? Note that sand comes only by the bag, so the number of bags must be a whole number. (Use the value 3.14 for pi number .)

Sagot :

Answer:

About 5 bags of sand

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Create Equation

[(48x3.14)-(40x3.14)]/6

2. Solve

[(48x3.14)-(40x3.14)]/6

[150.72-125.6]/6

25.12/6

Now if you use a calculater you will get

4.1866666667

So lets just round the number to 5 instead of

4 beacuse if we round it to 4 it won't be enough

to cover the whole path.

so your answer is 5
