Question

Three quarters of the circumference of a circle equals how many degrees ?A.45B.90C.180D.270E.360

Answer 1

Three quarters is equivalent to 3/4.

The total degrees of a circle is equal to 360°

Determining three quarters of the circumference, we get:

$(\frac{\text{ 3}}{\text{ 4}})(360^{\circ})$

We get,

$(\frac{\text{ 3}}{\text{ 4}})(360^{\circ})$$=\frac{3\text{ x 360}}{\text{ 4}}$$\text{ }=\frac{1080\text{ }}{4}$$=270^{\circ}$

Therefore, three quarters of the circumference of a circle is 270°

The answer is letter D.
