How many feet of monkey grass would you need to go around a circular flower bed if you know that the area is 36πft squared?

1 answer

Given that the area of the flower bed is 36π square feet, we can calculate the radius of the circle using the formula for the area of a circle:

Area = πr^2
36π = πr^2
36 = r^2
r = 6 feet

Once we have the radius, we can calculate the circumference of the circle using the formula:

Circumference = 2πr
Circumference = 2π(6)
Circumference = 12π feet

Therefore, you would need 12π feet of monkey grass to go around a circular flower bed with an area of 36π square feet.
