Problem
The figure below shows a large white circle with a number of smaller white and shaded circles in its interior. What fraction of the interior of the large white circle is shaded?
Solution 1
First, the total area of the radius circle is simply just
when using our area of a circle formula.
Now from here, we have to find our shaded area. This can be done by adding the areas of the
-radius circles and add; then, take the area of the
radius circle and subtract that from the area of the
radius 1 circles to get our resulting complex area shape. Adding these up, we will get
.
So, our answer is .
~apex304
Solution 2
Pretend each circle is a square. The large shaded circle is a square with area , and the two white circles inside it each have areas of
, which adds up to
. The three small shaded circles become three squares with area
, and add up to
. Adding the areas of the shaded circles (19) and subtracting the areas of the white circles (8), we get
. Since the largest white circle in which all these other circles are becomes a square that has area
, our answer is
.
