Answer:

57 feet

Explanation:

A circular swimming pool has the shape of a circle

Therefore, find the circumference of a circle

Circumference of a circle = 2πr

Where,

Radius, r = diameter / 2

= 18 feet / 2

= 9 feet

π = 3.14

Circumference of a circle = 2πr

= 2 × 3.14 × 9 feet

= 56.52 feet

Approximately,

57 feet
