Question

-Picture-
Which is closest to the circumference, in inches, of the circular mat?
A. 44 inches
B. 88 inches
C. 154 inches
D. 616 inches

Answer 1

The circumference of the circle has a measurement of 44 inches

Explanation:

From the question, as we can see, the given length represents the diameter of the circle

To get the circumference of the circle, we use the formula for the circumference

this is;

C = pi * d

in this case, d = 14 in

Thus, we have it that;

C = pi * 14 = 14 * 22/7 = 44 in
