Answer: 1.99 ft

Explanation:

The formula for calculate the circumference of a circle:


C=2r\pi

Where r is the radius.

Based on the information given in the problem, you know that:


C=12.56

Substitute this value into the formula shown above and solve for the radius.

Then, this is:


12.56=2r\pi\\r=(12.56)/(2\pi)\\r=1.99feet

ANSWER

The radius is 2 feet.

EXPLANATION

The distance around the circular pit is 12.56 feet.

This means that, the circumference is 12.56.

We use the formula,


C=2\pi \: r

Substitute C=12.56 and π=3.14


12.56 = 2(3.14)r

Solve for r.


r = (12.56)/(2(3.14))

Simplify


r = 2ft
