To find the area of a circle, you need to use the formula A = πr^2, where r is the radius of the circle.
Since the diameter of the circle is 68 cm, the radius is half of the diameter, which is 34 cm.
Now, plug in the values into the formula:
A = 3.14 x 34^2
A = 3.14 x 1156
A = 3629.84 cm^2
Therefore, the approximate area of the circle is 3,629.84 cm^2.
