Question

Becca wants to make a giant apple pie to try and break the world record. If she succeeds in making a pie with 20 foot diameter, what will the size of the crust covering the pie be?

Answer 1

62.83 feet

EXPLANATION :

The pie has a diameter of 20 feet.

The size of the crust covering is the circumference of the pie.

The circumference formula is :

`C=2\pi r`

We know that the radius is half of diameter.

So the radius is 20/2 = 10 feet.

Using the formula above :

`\begin{gathered} C=2\pi(10) \\ C=62.83 \end{gathered}`
