Question

Find the circumference of the circle. Round your answer to the nearest yard.The image shows a circle with radius 6 yards.To the nearest yard, the circumference of the circle is ______ yards.The solution is ___________

Answer 1

The circle has a radius of 6 yards.

The circumference of a circle is derived by the formula;

$C=2\pi r$

C = circumference

r = 6

Pi = 3.14.

Therefore we now have;

$\begin{gathered} C=2\times3.14\times6 \\ C=37.68 \\ C\approx38\text{ yards (rounded to the nearest yard)} \end{gathered}$

The answer is 38 yards, (rounded to the nearest yard)
