Question

Skeeter the wonder dog jumps through circular rings as part of his dog show exhibition.skeeter requires a width of 18inches for his costume to clear the ring.Will a ring with an inner circumference of 39.8 inches be large enough for Skeeter's act ?

Answer 1

no bc the width of the circular ring is only 12.67 inches

knowing circumference = pi * diameter, we can make the formula:

39.8 = (3.14)(diameter)
divide 39.8 by 3.15

diameter = 12.67 inches

12.67 inches is not greater than or equal to 18 inches
