Find 1 round
--------------------------------------------------

1 round of the circle = πD
1 round of the circle = π(2x4)
1 round of the circle =8π

--------------------------------------------------
Find 10 rounds
--------------------------------------------------

10 round of the circle = 8π x 10
10 round of the circle = 80π
10 round of the circle = 251.33 m

--------------------------------------------------
Answer: 251.33 m

251.33m. First find the distance around one circle then times by ten for all the circles.
Circumference of each circle=2x(pi)xr
=2(Pi)x10
=25.13
For ten circles=25.13x10
=251.33
