Question

Diameter(a) is 20 cm and diameter(b) is 5. What is the ratio of circumference(a) to circumference(b)?.

Answer 1

5:1

Explanation:

d_a = 20

d_b = 5

Equation for the circumference of a circle:

C = pi*d

C_a = pi * d_a

C_a = pi*20

C_b = pi * d_b

C_b = pi * 5

Ratio of C_a to C_b = C_a/C_b

C_a/C_b = (pi * 20)/(pi * 4) = 5:1
