Approximately, she needs 24 inches of framing material

Here, we want to know the amount of framing material needed

With respect to the amount, we are to calculate the length of the framing material needed

Mathematically, this refers to the circumfrence of the circular picure

Thus, we need to calculate this

We have this as;


\begin{gathered} C\text{ = }\pi* D \\ D\text{ = 7.5 inches} \\ C\text{ = 3.142}*7.5 \\ C\text{ = 23.565 inches} \end{gathered}
