Mark has a piece of string 12 inches long he shapes string into rectangle that encloses an area of 5 square inches Can Mark enclose a greater area with the same string If sowhat is the area?

If Mark makes a circle, that circle would have a circumference of 12 inches. The formula for circumference is pi times diameter, so the circumference divided by pi will give you the diameter of 3.82 inches. Divide this by 2 to get the radius of 1.91 inches. Area of a circle is pi times the radius squared. 1.91 squared is 3.6481. Multiply this by pi to get 11.46 square inches of area inside the circle. A circle is always the most efficient use of space possible given a fixed perimeter. If Mark makes a square with equal sides where all sides are 3 inches, the area would be 9 square inches. 3 X 3 = 9
