What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 3 feet? Estimate the circumference to the hundredths place using 3.14 for π .(1 point)

Question

feet

Answer 1

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

\[ C = 2\pi r \]

where \( C \) is the circumference and \( r \) is the radius.

Given that the radius \( r = 3 \) feet and using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \), the calculation is:

\[ C = 2 \times 3.14 \times 3 \]

Now, calculate it step-by-step:

1. First, calculate \( 2 \times 3.14 \): \[ 2 \times 3.14 = 6.28 \]

2. Next, multiply that result by the radius (3): \[ 6.28 \times 3 = 18.84 \]

Thus, the circumference of the circle is approximately 18.84 feet.
