Rashon wants to pour a circular concrete walkway around his reflection pond. if the diameter of the circular walkway is 12 ft what is the circumfetence of the outside edge of the concrete walkway? give your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot

Answer 1

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

\[ C = \pi d \]

where \( C \) is the circumference and \( d \) is the diameter.

Given that the diameter of the walkway is 12 ft, we can substitute this value into the formula:

\[ C = \pi \times 12 \]

Now, using the approximate value of \( \pi \) as 3.14:

\[ C \approx 3.14 \times 12 \approx 37.68 \]

Rounding to the nearest tenth of a foot, the circumference is:

\[ C \approx 37.7 \text{ ft} \]

Thus, the circumference of the outside edge of the concrete walkway is approximately 37.7 ft.
