Answer:

1. 15.7 in

2. 153.9 cm

Explanation:

The circumference of a circle is found by the formula:

C = 2 * pi * r, where r represents the radius.

For the first circle, we substitute in 3.14 for pi and the given radius:

C = 2 * 3.14 * 2.5

C = 15.7 in

However, for the second circle, the diameter is given instead of the radius.

As the radius is just half of the diameter, we can find that it is 24.5 cm.

Substituting the values in, we get:

C = 2 * 3.14 * 24.5

C = 153.86 cm

Rounding to the nearest tenth gives us:

153.9 cm

Make sure to use the correct units for each question.
