What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 8 kilometers? Estimate the circumference to the hundredth place using 3.14 for π.

1 answer

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 \(d\) is 8 kilometers and using \(\pi \approx 3.14\), we can calculate the circumference as follows:

\[ C = 3.14 \times 8 \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ C = 25.12 \]

Therefore, the circumference of the circle is approximately 25.12 kilometers.
