A circular quilt is made from 113.04 square feet of fabric. How much trim is needed to go around it’s edge?

Hey there!

We are looking for the circumference of the circle, which is the distance around it. We are given the area, which is the radius squared times pi.

First, we need to undo the area to find our radius.

113.04/3.14=36

We square root this to find the radius.

√36=6

Our radius is six. To find the circumference, we need to multiply the diameter by pi. The diameter is twice the radius.

6*2=12

12*3.14=37.68

Therefore, we will need 37.68 feet of trim to around the edge of the quilt.

I hope this helps!

dalila is incorrect. the whisker on the left is very long, going all the way out to 5. the whisker goes from 5 to 30, so it has a spread of 25. the rest of the box plot values are closer together, so 5 is an outlier
