Molly is on a carousel ride. As it goes around she has been measuring the distance. The distance around the carousel is 21.98 yards, but what is the radius?

To find the circumference you would do,
(rx2)x3.14
(rx2)x3.14=21.98
so, 21.98/3.14=7
7/2=3.5

Check
3.5x2=7
7x3.14=21.98
So
3.5 is your answer!!! :)
