Question

A plate has a diameter of 14 inches.

What is the best approximation for the circumference of the plate?

Use 3.14 to approximate pi.

22.0 in.

44.0 in.

87.9 in.

153.9 in.

Answer 1

B.) 44.0 in is the closest to 43.96 which is what you get when you multiply 14 by 3.14.

Answer 2

Option
`44.0\ in`

Explanation:

we know that

The circumference of a circle is equal to

`C=\pi D`

where

D is the diameter of the circle

we have

`D=14\ in`

substitute

`C=3.14(14)=43.96\ in`

Round to one decimal place

`43.96=44.0\ in`
