Question

Jude estimates that his index finger is 3 inches long. He calculates the circumference of one of his bongo drums to be 27 inches. Suppose Jude used his finger as a referent to measure the circumference of the drum. How many finger lengths along the circumference of the drum would he have counted?

Answer 1

Answer: 9 finger lengths

Step-by-step explanation: Since the circumference is the middle line passing through (usually a circle....) 27/3 equals 9, which basically means that 9 of Jude's index fingers can pass through the circumference of one of his bongo drums. Hope this helps, 15402256.
