Question

Help—

Natalie is having a birthday party and it's time to cut
the cake.
Unfortunately she doesn't know how far she needs to
cut from the center to the edge of the cake.
She remembered the baker told her that the
circumference is 46 inches.
How far should Natalie cut?
**NO spaces
**Include units
**Round to the nearest hundredths

Answer 1

7.32 inches

Explanation:

The circumference of the circle is 46 inches, and you just have to find the radius... you do the 2xpixr=C backwards. So 2xpixr=46 simplify the expression; 6.28xr=46 then divide... r=46/6.28... Which rounds to 7.32 inches as the radius.

(And yes you are finding the radius if you are finding a line from the middle of the circle to an edge)

I hope this helps :))
