The circumference of a circle is given by the following formula:


c=2\pi r

From this equation, we can solve for r by dividing both sides by 2π, like this:


\begin{gathered} (c)/(2\pi)=(2\pi r)/(2\pi) \\ (c)/(2\pi)=(2\pi)/(2\pi)r \\ (c)/(2\pi)=1* r \\ (c)/(2\pi)=r \\ r=(c)/(2\pi) \end{gathered}

By replacing 40π for c, we get:


r=(40\pi)/(2\pi)=20

Then, the radius of the circle equals 20
