actually sorry lol that will make it harder.. try to move r^2 to the right instead of the 100.

really?
if i try this then i get 100=29.6/23.7 x r2
80.06756757=r2
8.95(2dp)= r

Right?

should be right.. sub r into the original equation (not the rounded value) and see what the answer is

^^ so for the 1st step write (×r2\times r^2) on both sides to let the examiner know how you're trying to get r^2 on its own..
