Find the circumference of a circular swimming pool with a diameter of 18

Question

feet. Use 3.14
as an approximation for
. Round your answer to the nearest foot. Enter only the number.

Answer 1

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

\[ C = \pi \times d \]

where \( C \) is the circumference and \( d \) is the diameter of the circle. Given that the diameter is 18 feet and using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \):

\[ C = 3.14 \times 18 \]

Now, calculate:

\[ C = 3.14 \times 18 = 56.52 \]

Rounding to the nearest foot, the circumference is:

\[ \text{C} \approx 57 \]

So the circumference of the swimming pool is 57.
