Armin is making cake pops. He has enough chocolate to cover 750 cm2 . If a cake pop has a diameter of 3 cm, how many cake pops can he cover in chocolate? Use 3.14 as the value of pi.(1 point)

Explanation:
The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr^2, where r is the radius of the circle. Since the diameter is given, we first need to find the radius.
Radius (r) = Diameter / 2 = 3 cm / 2 = 1.5 cm
Now, we can calculate the area of 1 cake pop:
A = π(1.5)^2 = 3.14 * 2.25 ≈ 7.07 cm^2
Now, divide the total chocolate area by the area of 1 cake pop:
750 cm^2 / 7.07 cm^2 ≈ 106.05
Since he cannot cover a fraction of a cake pop, Armin can cover 106 cake pops with the given amount of chocolate.
