Garret throws a dart at a circular dart board. The dart board has a radius of 18 inches and the bulls eye in the center of the dart board has a radius of 4 inches what is the probability that a dart thrown at random within the dartboard will hit the bulls eye?

The area of the entire dart board can be calculated using the formula for the area of a circle: A = πr^2

A = π(18)^2
A = π(324)
A = 1017.88 square inches

The area of the bulls eye can be calculated using the same formula: A = πr^2
A = π(4)^2
A = π(16)
A = 50.27 square inches

Therefore, the probability of hitting the bulls eye is the ratio of the area of the bulls eye to the area of the entire dart board:
P = (50.27 / 1017.88) = 0.0494

Rounded to the nearest tenth, the probability is 0.1 or 10%.
