Answer:

Theodore Needs 37.7 inches Licorice Rope to put around the outside of the cake

Explanation:

Given:

The diameter of the cake = 12 Inches

To Find :

The length of the rope to put outside the cake = ?

Solution:

To Find the l;length we are supposed to find the circumference of the cake

The circumference pf the cake = circumference of the circle

Then circumference of the cake is
2\pi r

where r is the radius

We are given with diameter.

we know that radius =
(diameter)/(2) =
(12)/(2) = 6 inches

Now the circumference is

=>
2\pi (6)

=>
2 * 3.14 * 6

=> 37.7 inches
