Answer: A, 6 cm

Explanation:

Circumference is 2(radius) * pi.

A. 12pi C. 24pi B. 16pi D. 32pi

Assuming pi is roughly 3,

A = 36

C = 72

B = 48

D = 96

A is the closest and if you actually used pi, it would be about 3.14159265 which would make the circumference slightly over 36, which 37.68 is.

Hope this helped.
