A circular lampshade with a diameter of 14 inches has a length of wire that goes around exactly one time. How many inches of wire are needed to go around the lampshade exactly one time?
the questions is how long the circumference of the lampshade is, and that is given by: c = diameter*pi c = 14*3.14 c = 43.96 so, there are needed 43.96 inches of wire to go around the lampshade one time
