  • If a circumference is 6π, what is the radius?


\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}

Given,

  • circumference of the circle (c) = 6π
  • radius of the circle (r) = ?

__________________

We can solve this question using the formula ⇨ circumference = 2 × π × radius of the circle.

So,


c = 2 \pi \: r

Substitute the value of c with 6π.


6 \pi = 2 \pi \: r

Divide 2π from both the sides.


6 \pi ÷ 2 \pi = r

Cancel out π & divide 6 by 2 to get 3.


\huge\boxed{ \boxed{ \bf \: 3= r}}

  • The radius of the circle is 3 units.
