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⋅450^2
upper C approximately equals 3.14 times 450 squared

C≈2⋅3.14⋅450

1 answer

To calculate the circumference of a circle, the correct formula is:

\[ C = 2\pi r \]

where \( r \) is the radius. Approximating \( \pi \) as \( 3.14 \), the formula becomes:

\[ C \approx 2 \times 3.14 \times r \]

Given a radius of 450, the formula for circumference would be:

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

Therefore, the correct response is:

C ≈ 2⋅3.14⋅450
