Will give medal and fan if you help me! Find the circumference of the circle (use 3.14 for pi) show your work, round to the nearest tenth

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What circle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well we can began by using the definition of circumference: \[C=2\pi R\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Where R = radius. The R in your problem is 23yd, so we will just plug into the formula. \[2\pi(23)=144.5\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Does that help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait, is 144 the answer, or do i multiply it times 1661.01

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well if you are looking for the circumference the answer is 144.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh. Thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh wait the answer, when multiplied with 3.14, = 144.4. 145.5 is the answer when you use the extended numbers for pi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So if you have to use 3.14 in your work, the answer will be 144.4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok. Thanks!
