SOLUTION:

Case: Circumference

Method:

Circumference, C= 53.40703

The height of the barrel described here is the diameter. Mario would have to jump a little above the diameter of the barrel but not too high to get to the fire.

The formula connecting the Circumference of a circle to its diameter is given as:


\begin{gathered} C=\pi d \\ 53.40703=\pi d \\ d=(53.40703)/(\pi) \\ d=16.99998564071 \end{gathered}

Final answer:

Mario has just jump a little above 16.99998564071 units high
