Question

HELLPPPPP NOWWWWW MEEE PLSSS
The circumference of a roll of party streamers is 11 inches. The circumference decreases by 3 inches after you use the streamers to decorate for a birthday party. Find the diameter of the roll after the decrease.

Answer 1

The diameter is 2.5464790895 or you could do 2 1/2

Answer 2

Answer:

Diameter of the roll after the decrease = 2.54 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of a roll of party streamers = 11 inches

Circumference of the circle is given by = 2π × radius

Now, circumference of the streamers is decreased by 3 inches

⇒ Decreased circumference of the streamers = 11 - 3 = 8 inches

To find radius of the decreased circumference streamers :

2π × radius = 8

⇒ Radius = 1.27 inches

Hence, Diameter of the roll after the decrease = 2 × 1.27

                                                                                 = 2.54 inches
