Answer:
- 615.8 square feet
- 9 truckloads
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the circular ring is given by the formula ...
A = πr²
where r is the radius, or half the diameter.
A = π(14 ft)² = 196π ft² ≈ 615.752 ft²
The area of the training area is about 615.8 square feet.
__
The number of truckloads of dirt required for coverage will be ...
(615.8 ft²)/(75 ft²/truckload) ≈ 8.21 truckloads
Since the dirt comes only in whole truckloads, Hilary needs 9 truckloads.
