Question

Which of the following uses the correct formula to find the approximate circumference of a circle that has a radius of 450?(1 point)
Responses

C≈3.14⋅150
upper C approximately equals 3.14 times 150

C≈3.14⋅450÷2
upper C approximately equals 3.14 times 450 divided by 2

C≈3.14⋅4502
upper C approximately equals 3.14 times 450 squared

C≈2⋅3.14⋅450

1 answer

To find the approximate circumference of a circle, the formula used is:

\[ C \approx 2 \cdot \pi \cdot r \]

Where \( C \) is the circumference and \( r \) is the radius of the circle. In this case, the radius is 450.

Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \), the correct formula for the circumference would therefore be:

\[ C \approx 2 \cdot 3.14 \cdot 450 \]

From the options provided, the correct choice is:

C≈2⋅3.14⋅450
