The approximate area of the circle can be calculated using the formula A = πr^2, where r is the radius of the circle which is half of the diameter.
Given that the diameter is 68 cm, the radius (r) is 34 cm.
Now, substituting the values into the formula:
A = 3.14 * 34^2
A = 3.14 * 1156
A = 3629.84 cm^2
Therefore, the approximate area of the circle is 3,629.84 cm^2.
Correct Response:
3,629.84 cm2
