Given :

The rim of a tire has a diameter of 12 inches.

To find :

What is the circumference of the tire rim?

Solution :

A circle's circumference is given by,

  • C = πd

where:

C = circumference;

d = diameter.

Substitute the value of the diameter (12) into this formula :

C = π × 12

C = 37.7 cm

Therefore The circumference is 37.7 cm.
