A park has a circular swimming pool. The diameter of the pool is 18 ft. What is the distance traveled if you swim around the edge of the pool once? Use pi = 3.14

A) 36 ft
B) 169.65 ft
C) 113.10 ft
D) 56.52 ft
I think it is [D] but I'm not sure.

To calculate the distance traveled if you swim around the edge of the pool once, you need to find the circumference of the circular pool.

The circumference of a circle is given by the formula C = πd, where C is the circumference and d is the diameter.

In this case, the diameter is given as 18 ft. So, we can substitute this value into the formula:

C = 3.14 x 18
C ≈ 56.52 ft

Therefore, the correct answer is [D] 56.52 ft.

To calculate the distance traveled if you swim around the edge of the circular pool once, you need to find the circumference of the pool. The circumference of a circle can be calculated using the formula:

Circumference = π × Diameter

Given that the diameter of the pool is 18 ft, we can substitute this value into the formula:

Circumference = π × 18 = 3.14 × 18 = 56.52 ft

So, the correct answer is option [D] 56.52 ft.

You're right.
