Answer:

The best expression represents the value of π is
(37.7)/(12) ⇒ 2nd answer

Explanation:

π is the ratio between the circumference of the circle and the length of its diameter

$(C)/(d)=\pi$ , where

∵ The circumference of the circle is about 37.7 cm

∵ The diameter of the circle is about 12 cm

- Find the ratio between them

∴
(C)/(d)=(37.7)/(12)

∵
$(C)/(d)=\pi$

- Equate the two right hand sides

∴
$(37.7)/(12)=\pi$

∴ The best expression represents the value of π is
(37.7)/(12)
