Fractions :
A certain part of the whole is called as fractions. The fractions can be denoted as a/b , Where a, b are integers. We can multiply two or more fractions. There are three types of fractions in math,
1) Proper fractions
2) Improper fractions
3) Mixed fractions
Pi( pi ):
We can express pi as an improper fraction.
pi = 22 / 7
Here we are going to see some problems using pi fraction .
Example Problems for Pi Fraction
Problem 1:
Find the area of the circle with the radius of 5 cm. using the area formula πr2. (Note: Here substitute the fraction value for π =(22/7)
Solution:
Given radius of the circle is 5 cm.
Formula:
Area of the circle = πr2
Substitute the given radius value and π in the given formula, we get
Area of the circle = (22/7) * (52) cm2
= 3.14 * 25 cm2
Multiplying the both the values, we get
= 78.5 cm2
Answer: The area of the circle is 78.5 cm2
Problem 2:
Find the surface area of the sphere with the radius of 12 cm. using the area formula 4πr2. (Note: Here substitute the fraction value for π =(22/7) )
Solution:
Given radius of the sphere is 12 cm.
Formula:
Surface area of the sphere = 4πr2
Substitute the given radius value and π in the given formula, we get
Surface area of the sphere = 4 * (22/7) * (122) cm2
= 4 * 3.14 * 144 cm2
Multiplying the both the values, we get
= 1808.64 cm2
Answer:
The surface area of the sphere is 1808.64 cm2
