The circumference of a circle is gotten using the formula below;
[tex]\begin{gathered} C=2\pi r \\ \text{Where r is the radius of the circle} \end{gathered}[/tex]
Step 1: Let's find the value of the radius;
[tex]\begin{gathered} C=2\pi r \\ r=\frac{C}{2\pi} \\ r=\frac{76}{2\times3.14} \\ r=\frac{76}{6.28} \\ r=12.10\operatorname{cm} \end{gathered}[/tex]
Step 2: The area of the circle is given as;
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=\pi r^2 \\ \text{Where r is the radius of the circle} \\ A=3.14\times(12.10)^2 \\ A=459.73 \\ A=460\operatorname{cm}^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Hence, the area of the circle is 460 square centimeters.
