Answer:

2261.94671

Explanation:

You must first find the circumference of the track. Using 2(pi)r.

Where pi=3.14... and r=radius

you can find the radius by dividing the diameter by 2, 120/2=60

Afterwards you input 60 into the equation. 60*(pi)*2= 376.99111843077515

Using that number you multiply it by 6 because she ran the circumference 6 times. 6*376.99111843077515 = 2261.94671

NOTE: The question may require you to simplify at certain times so answers may vary slightly. EX: pi = 3.14, Circumference = 377
