Answers:
It's kind of impossible to "give you" an answer for this question. However, there are a few ways you can figure it out.

If you don't want to buy the whole trampoline to figure it out, bring a ruler and a piece of paper with you. Measure out a one inch square on the surface of the trampoline and count the number of holes that are in that inch. (For the sake of simplicity, let's just say it's 20).

Now, since you know that the diamter is 14 feet, you need to find how many inches that is. The area of a circle is (pi)r^2. Because you want to measure the number of INCHES in a circle, you will convert the 7 feet radius into 84 inches.

The you plug in the 84. getting (pi) * 84^2
Then you get about : 22155.86 inches squared.

Then take the amount of holes you measured for one inch and multiple it by the total number of inches in the trampoline.

Then you get: 443116.8. though you can't have a .8 of a hole... so, rounded up it would be 443,117 holes.

This is ONLY an example though, but as you can see... it's a LOT of holes. I only hope you won't try to count them all individually, that would take a LONG time..

Hope this answers your question.
