A circular playground has an area of 616 m². Find the radius of the playground. Use pi = (22)/(7).

The area of the circular playground ($A$) is $616 \text{ m}^2$.
The formula for the area of a circle is $A = \pi r^2$, where $r$ is the radius.
We will use the approximation $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$.

Multiply both sides by $\frac{7}{22}$:

Divide 616 by 22:

The radius of the playground is 14 meters.

The final answer is $\text{14 m}$.
