Question

Consider two circular swimming pools. Pool A has a radius of 22 feet, and Pool B has a diameter of 13.6 meters. Complete the description for which pool has a greater circumference. Round to the nearest hundredth for each circumference. 1 foot ? 0.305 meters The diameter of Pool A is ... meters. So, the diameter of Pool... Is greater, and the circumference is... By... meters.

Answer 1

See below.

Explanation:

Diameter of pool A = 2 * radius = 2 * 22

= 44 feet

= 44 * 0.305 = 13.42 meters.

The diameter of Pool B ( 13. 6 m) is greater than the diameter of Pool A.

The circumference of Pool A is 13.42 * pi = 42.16 m and that of B is 42.73 m, so that the circumference of Pool B is greater than that of Pool A by

0.57 m.
