Ok, here's a math problem that shouldn't be too hardiharhar...
Betty owns a candy store that sells candy by the pound...
She has a batch of Reeses Pieces that sells for $3 a pound, and a batch of Malted Milk Balls that sell for $2 a pound...
If she makes a new mixed batch with 2 pounds of Reeses Pieces and 1 pound of Malted Milk Balls, what should the price of the new batch be?
____________________________________
Reeses Pieces = $3 a pound
Malted Milk Balls = $2 a pound
New batch with 2 pounds Reeses pieces, and 1 pound Malted milk balls = $??? a pound

But if she's a savy business woman and likes nice round prices she'll probably price it at $2.75 per pound (after all she has to account for the time and effort spent measuring and mixing those two candies together).

Area = pi x (radius squared), as shown above..
Radius = square root of 7, which is 2.645
Area = 7.14 x (2.645 squared)
2.645 squared = 7
Area = 7.14 x 7
Area = 4,998 sq. inches
pi = 3.14159
radius squared = 7
so area of said circle should be just over 21 square inches or if I pull out my calculator 21.99113 square inches.

Oh well, it's been awhile since I've had to use pi for anything.
