The area of the hamburger can be calculated using the formula for the area of a circle, which is A = πr^2. Since the diameter is given, we first need to find the radius by dividing the diameter by 2:
Radius = Diameter / 2 = 5 cm / 2 = 2.5 cm
Now we can plug the radius into the formula:
A = π(2.5 cm)^2 = π(6.25 cm^2) ≈ 19.63 cm^2
Therefore, the area of the hamburger was approximately 19.63 square centimeters.
