A circular helipad has a diameter of 20 feet. Using 3.14 for pi, what is its approximate area?

Correct!
Not quite. The correct answer is highlighted.
Correct answer to question 230 (Arithmetic Reasoning): 314 square feet
Method
The radius is half the diameter, or 10 feet. The area formula uses the radius squared, so 3.14 x 10 x 10 gives 314 square feet. Using the diameter instead of the radius is the usual mistake.
