The area of a plate (which we are assuming is in the shape of a circle) is

A=(pi)(radius)^2

A diameter is (2) times the (radius). The area of the dinner plate is (3.14)(5.5)^2 = 94.99

The area of the salad plate is (3.14)(4)^2 = 50.24

Now, subtract the area of the smaller plate from the larger plate. Therefore, 94.99 - 50.24 = 44.75.

Therefore, the dinner plate is approximately 44.74 in^2 more than the salad plate.

How many square feet does 1 ton of asphalt cover at 2 inches?

As a rule of thumb, 0.112 tons of asphalt (2" thick) will cover 1 square yard or 9 square feet. Thus 1 tone of asphalt (2" thick) will cover 8.93 square yards or 80.36 square feet. ------------------------------- Another (possibly more accurate) way of doing this is to use standards 1 ton [long, UK] = 2240 pounds Density of compacted Asphalt = 147 pounds per cubic foot (1728 cubic inches) 12 inches times 12 inches times 2 inches = 288 cubic inches Thus the weight of 288 cubic inches of compacted asphalt will be (288/1728)* 147 = 24.5 pounds. Therefore a tone of asphalt will cover 2240/24.5 = 91.43 square feet to a depth of 2 inches.


How many square inches cover 1 square yard and how many in 3 square yards?

Part 1: There are 36 inches in a yard. So a square yard is 36 x 36 square inches = 1296. Part 2: Each square yard is 36 X 36 inches [length and width] Having multipied this ... then seeing that you want 3 of these square yards, you multiply your first answer by 3. So, 36 X 36 = 1296...
