    Circle table

    Step-by-step explanation:

    More people will fit around the circle table then the rectangle table. You can find the distance around using the circumference.

    C = πr² = π (4) ²=16π = 50.24 feet

    The perimeter of a rectangle table is P = 2l+2w = 2 (10) + 2 (5) = 30 feet.

    With more than 20 feet more, the circle table will fit more.
