A circular play mat has a diameter of 6 feet.

Question

Part A What is the circumference, in feet, of the play mat rounded to the nearest hundredth? Use 3.14 for
.

Answer 1

To calculate the circumference of a circular play mat, 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 6 feet and using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \):

\[ C = 3.14 \times 6 \]

Calculating this:

\[ C = 18.84 \text{ feet} \]

So, the circumference of the play mat, rounded to the nearest hundredth, is 18.84 feet.
