Answer:

6.28

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of flat shapes, a circle.

Given data

Diameter d=
2in

Radius r =
(d)/(2) = (2)/(2) = 1in

We know that the expression for the circumference of a circle is given as


C= 2\pi r

Substituting our given data and solving for C we have


C= 2*3.142*1\\C= 6.28
