No. The radius is half the diameter.
Then divide by 5 sq. ft.
Then divide by 5 sq. ft.

Sorry I am lost.
The diameter is 10 so half is 5.
Then divided by 5 square feet.

Yes.
3.14 * 5^2 = area of circular bed
area of circular bed/5 = number of flowers
3.14 * 5^2 = area of circular bed
area of circular bed/5 = number of flowers
