Math Problem Statement

1/2 3.14(11)2

Solution

Let's break down the expression you provided:
123.14(11)2\frac{1}{2} \cdot 3.14 \cdot (11)^2

This appears to be calculating the area of a circle using the formula for the area: A=12πr2A = \frac{1}{2} \pi r^2 where π\pi is approximated as 3.14, and the radius r=11r = 11.

Step-by-step calculation:

  1. Square the radius: (11)2=121(11)^2 = 121
  2. Multiply by 3.14: 3.14121=379.943.14 \cdot 121 = 379.94
  3. Multiply by 12\frac{1}{2}: 12379.94=189.97\frac{1}{2} \cdot 379.94 = 189.97

The result is approximately 189.97189.97.
