A circle with a radius of 6 inches is inscribed in a square. *(please imagine it or draw it out)* If a dart is

Thank you.21% out of circle.P = pi/4 = 0.36pi / 144 =.......
....If a dart is thrown inside the square, what is the probability that it lands inside the circle? Round to nearest percent.

Thank you.

Don't know if this is the right solution but I hope it helps
Area of square 12*12=144
Area of circle r²*pi =113
Divide 113/144=79% it lands in circle
21% out of circle.

Area of square = 12*12 = 144 in^2
Area of circle = 36pi
Area of square outside of circle =
(144-36pi)
P of landing outside circle = (144-36pi)/144
P of landing inside circle = 1 - (144-36pi)/144
P = (144-144+36pi)/144
P = pi/4 = 0.7854
P = 79%

so you need to find the area of the square and the area of the circle

S = s^2 = (2*6)^2 = 144

C = pi*r^2 = 36pi

36pi / 144 = .785

79%
