Question

A circle of white daisies is planted in Centerville's central park. Jackie measured the circle and calculated that is has a circumference of 6.28 meters. What is the circle's radius?

Use 3.14 for r. If necessary, round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

The radius is 1 meter.

Explanation:

Circumference = 2 π r

6.28 = 2 π r

If we take π to be 3.14, we have

6.28 = 2*3.14* r

r = 6.28/6.28

= 1 m.
