C=18.84\text{ ft}

Step-by-step explanation

the circumference of a circle is given by:


C=\pi\cdot diameter

Step 1

find the diameter of the larger fountain:

the diameter of the larger fountain is the sum of the small ones, so


\begin{gathered} \text{Diameter=}3\text{ ft +3 ft} \\ \text{Diameter}=6\text{ ft} \end{gathered}

Step 2

replace the diameter in the formula


\begin{gathered} C=\pi\cdot diameter \\ C=\pi\cdot6\text{ ft} \\ C=18.84\text{ ft} \end{gathered}

I hope this helps you
