A circular tablecloth has a radius of 3.5 feet. Lyle is sewing a piece of ribbon around the edge of the tablecloth. If Lyle has exactly enough ribbon, which measurement is closest to the length of the piece of ribbon in feet?

Answer:

22ft

Explanation:

Length or ribbon = Circumference of the circle

C = 2πr

C = 2π(3.5)

C = 21.99

It is 7 ft, the radius(3.5ft) is just half of the circle and adding them should give you 7ft

3.5+ 3.5= 7ft
