given
In my purse I have 10 circular coins of radius 1,2,3, ..., 10, respectively. A pickpocket lifted my wallet (argh-h!) and fetched a random coin.
we have to find the expected area of the coin
as pickpocket fetched random coin so each coin has equal probability to be fetched
henc p=1/10=0.1
area of circle is given by area=3.14(r)2
then expected area of coin =0.1*3.14*(1+4+9+16+25+36+49+64+81+100)
=0.314*385=120.89 answer
