Answer:

The diameter of the target is
48\ in

Explanation:

we know that

In this problem the distance from the center of an archery target to the outside edge of the target is equal to the radius of the target

so


r=24\ in

Remember that

The diameter is two times the radius


D=2r

substitute


D=2(24)=48\ in
