Answer:


1.57\textrm{ yd}

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter of the circle,
D=18\textrm{ in}.

We need to convert the diameter in yards.

We know that,
36\textrm{ in} = 1\textrm{ yd}

So,
1\textrm{ in} =(1)/(36)\textrm{ yd}

Now,
18\textrm{ in} =(1)/(36)* 18=0.5\textrm{ yd}

Circumference of a circle of diameter,
D, is given as:


\textrm{Circumference}=\pi D

Plug in 0.5 for
D
and calculate the circumference. This gives,


\textrm{Circumference}=\pi * 0.5=3.14* 0.5=1.57\textrm{ yd}

Therefore, the circumference of the given figure is
1.57\textrm{ yd}.
