The formula for finding radius is r=c/2π where r is radius, c is circumference and π is pi, c is 22 inches, π is 22/7
r=22/ (2*22/7)=22/ 44/7=7/2=3.5 inches
Therefore the radius is 3.5 inches

Answer: Radius of the clock is 3.5 inches.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Circumference of a clock = 22 inches

We need to find the radius of the clock.

As we know the formula for "Circumference":


C=2\pi r\\\\22=2* (22)/(7)* r\\\\(7)/(2)=r\\\\r=3.5\ inches

Hence, radius of the clock is 3.5 inches.
