Question

at the bakery, where Wyatt works, one of the cups in a cupcake tray has a diameter of 2 inches. What is the cups circumference?
use 3.14 for pi. if necessary, around your answer to the nearest hundredth

Answer 1

To find the circumference of a circle (or the cup in this case), you can use the formula:

\[
C = \pi \times d
\]

where \( C \) is the circumference, \( \pi \) is approximately 3.14, and \( d \) is the diameter.

Given that the diameter \( d \) is 2 inches, we can substitute this value into the formula:

\[
C = 3.14 \times 2
\]

Calculating this gives:

\[
C = 6.28
\]

Therefore, the circumference of the cup is **6.28 inches**.
