help im lost
What's your question ?
Bill measures the circumference of a circular fish pond to be 28 ft. What is the diameter of the fish pond, rounded to the nearest foot? Use 3.14 to approximate pi. ft
The formula for the circumference of a circle is diameter times pi. You are given the circumference. And the value of pi (3.14). Plug those into the formula and solve for the diameter.
276.208826104 in terms of pi
Can you put it in an equation for me so i can understand?
\(\Large C=d\pi\) where C = circumference, d = diameter, and \(\large\pi\) = 3.14 The problem says the circumference equals 28ft. Solve for d.
The formulas to this kind of stuff :)
@StudyGurl14 how do we plug it in
If c = 28, and \(\large\pi\) = 3.14, replace c in the equation with 28, and pi with 3.14.
i did \[28=d*3.14\]

@techygirl
Good, now solve for d.
how?
divide
\[28/3.14=8.917197........\] @techygirl
yea
Yep. Good job.
so the answer is 9 since were rounding to the nearest foot @techygirl
yep :p
