Question

Find the circumference of a circular swimming pool with a radius of 8.5 yards. Use 3.14 as an approximation for pie. Round your answer to the nearest whole yard. Enter only the number.

Answer 1

53 yards

Explanation:

Hello!

The circumference formula of a circle is
`C = 2\pi r`, where C is the circumference, and r is the radius.

Given that pi is 3.14, solve for the circumference.

Solve for C

• 
  `C = 2\pi r`
• 
  `C = 2(3.14)(8.5)`
• 
  `C = 53.38`

The circumference of the circle is 53.38, but rounded to the nearest whole yard would be 53 yards.
