please help me will give medal Which is the best approximation for the circumference of a merry-go-round that is 12 ft in diameter? A. 18 ft B. 19 ft C. 36 ft D. 38 ft

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is 37.699 so you can decide to round up to 38 or round down to 36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

personally i would round up

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

10 year old son says 38 feet, having done the math in his head :-) There's no real question about the rounding: if the digit in the next place is 5,6,7,8,9, you round up, otherwise down. 37.699 has a 6, so we round up to 38.
