Answer 2

To find the circumference of a circle, you can use the formula:

\[
C = \pi \times d
\]

where \(C\) is the circumference and \(d\) is the diameter. Given that the diameter \(d\) is 5.75 miles and using \(\pi \approx 3.14\), we can calculate the circumference as follows:

\[
C = 3.14 \times 5.75
\]

Now, let's perform the multiplication:

\[
C = 3.14 \times 5.75 = 18.095
\]

To estimate the circumference to the hundredths place, we round 18.095 to two decimal places:

So, the estimated circumference is:

\[
\text{Circumference} \approx 18.10 \text{ miles}
\]

Thus, the answer is **18.10 miles**.

Answer 3

Apologies for any confusion in my previous calculation. Let's recalculate the circumference of the circle with a diameter of 5.75 miles using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \).

The formula for the circumference \( C \) is:

\[
C = \pi \times d
\]

Substituting the given values:

\[
C = 3.14 \times 5.75
\]

Now let's perform the multiplication step-by-step:

1. First, let's calculate \(5.75 \times 3.14\):
- \(5.75 \times 3.14 = 18.095\)

Now, rounding to the hundredths place:

- 18.095 rounds to 18.10 when rounded to two decimal places.

However, if you're referring to a direct multiplication or any other value that I might have miscalculated, let's clarify it.

To ensure we have it correct, let's break down the multiplication clearly:

\[
C = 3.14 \times 5.75
\]
- \(3.14 \times 5 = 15.70\)
- \(3.14 \times 0.75 = 2.355\) (You can use \(3.14 \times 0.75\) since \(0.75 = \frac{3}{4}\))

So adding those results together:

\[
C = 15.70 + 2.355 = 18.055
\]

Rounding 18.055 to the hundredths place gives us:

\[
\text{Circumference} \approx 18.06 \text{ miles}
\]

Thus, the estimated circumference of the circle to the hundredths place is **18.06 miles**. Thank you for your patience!
