A small silver dollar pancake served at a restaurant has a circumference of 2 inches. A regular pancake has a circumference of 4 inches. Is the area of the regular pancake twice the area of the silver dollar pancake? Explain.
Area of small silver dollar pancake=4pi Area of regular pancake=16pi 16pi/4pi=4 times bigger than silver dollar pancake NO, because in order to find the area of a circle you need to multiply pi with radius squared.
