The problem states that the radius of the box is 12 inches. Substitute "r" in the circumference equation for 12 to calculate the answer.

SmokeyBrown:

Sure, so the question asks about how much ribbon it takes to go around the outer edge of the box. Since the box is a circle, we can find the length of the ribbon by calculating the circumference. Like Extrinix explained, the formula for calculating a circle's Circumference is \[C=\pi*r*2\], where C is the circumference, pi is the constant approximately equal to 3.14, and r is the radius of the circle. Since the problem gives us the radius equal to 12, we just need to use the equation to calculate the circumference. \[C=\pi*12*2\] \[C=\pi*24\] \[C=3.14*24\]
