Solution:

Given:

  • Radius = 6 inches
  • π = 3.14

Formula to find circumference: 2πr

Use the formula to find the circumference.

  • 2πr = Circumference
  • 2(3.14)(6) = Circumference
  • => 37.68 in. = Circumference.

The circumference of the circle is 37.68 in.

Given :

  • Radius of circle = 6 inches
  • pi = 3.14


\\ \\

To find :

  • Circumference of circle.


\\ \\

Let :-

Circumference of circle be C.


\\ \\

Step-by-step explanation:


\\ \\

To find circumference of circle we have to use this formula:-


\\


\bigstar \boxed{ \rm Cicumference \: of \: circle = 2\pi radius}


\\ \\

Therefore:-


\dashrightarrow\sf C= 2\pi radius \\


\\ \\


\dashrightarrow\sf C= 2 * 3.14 * 6


\\ \\


\dashrightarrow\sf C= 2 * (314)/(100) * 6


\\ \\


\dashrightarrow\sf C= (314 * 2 * 6)/(100)


\\ \\


\dashrightarrow\sf C= (3768)/(100)


\\ \\


\bf\dashrightarrow C=37.68 \: inches


\\ \\


\therefore \underline{ \frak{ \red{Cicumference \: of \: circle = \blue{37.68 \: inches}}}}
