Answer:

1) 12in

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference is 75, so to find the diameter you have to divide 75 by 3.14. You get 24 approximately. Then divide the diameter by 2, so 24/2=12.

Answer:

The answer to your question is 12 in

Explanation:

Data

Circumference = 75 in

radius = ?

π = 3.14

Circumference is defined as the distance around the edge of a circle.

Formula

Circumference = 2 π radius

Solve for radius

Radius = Circumference / 2π

-Substitution

Radius = 75 / 2(3.14)

-Simplification

Radius = 75/6.28

-Result

Radius = 11.94 in ≈ 12 in
