Given:

The circumference of a circular garden is 157feet.

Required:

To find the radius of the circular garden.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for circumference of a circle is,


C=2\pi r

Here,


C=157feet

Put C into the above, we get


\begin{gathered} 157=2*\pi* r \\ 157=2*3.142* r \\ 157=6.284r \\ r=(157)/(6.284) \\ r=24.984 \end{gathered}

Final Answer:

The radius of the circular garden is,


r=24.984feet
