Is cylindrical container has a diameter of 12 cm what is the circumference of the top of the container

Answers

Answered by GPT-4o mini
To find the circumference of the top of a cylindrical container, you can use the formula for the circumference of a circle:

\[
C = \pi \times d
\]

where \( C \) is the circumference and \( d \) is the diameter.

Given the diameter of the container is 12 cm, the formula becomes:

\[
C = \pi \times 12 \, \text{cm}
\]

Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \):

\[
C \approx 3.14 \times 12 \, \text{cm} \approx 37.68 \, \text{cm}
\]

So, the circumference of the top of the container is approximately **37.68 cm**. If you want a more precise answer, you can use the more accurate value of \( \pi \) (approximately 3.14159):

\[
C \approx 3.14159 \times 12 \, \text{cm} \approx 37.6991 \, \text{cm}
\]

Therefore, the circumference is approximately **37.70 cm** when rounded to two decimal places.
