A circular garden with a radius of 8 feet is surrounded by a circular path with a width of 3 feet. What is the approximate area of the path alone? Use 3 point 1 4 for pi

The path extends the garden’s radius from 8 feet to 11 feet, since its width is 3 feet. The path’s area is the outer circle’s area minus the garden’s area: 3.14 × (11² − 8²) = 3.14 × (121 − 64) = 178.98 square feet. The answer is B, 178.98 ft².
