Answer 1

Statement Problem: A glass vase has a circular rim with a diameter of 5 west n. How many inches of ribbon are needed to go once around the rim.

Solution:

`\pi=3.14,d=5in`

The circumference of a circle is the perimeter of the circle. It is the total length of the boundary of the circle.

The perimeter P of the circular rim is;

`\begin{gathered} P=\pi d \\ \end{gathered}`

Thus, we have;

`\begin{gathered} P=3.14*5in \\ P=15.7in \end{gathered}`

CORRECT ANSWER:

`15.7\text{inches}`
