A race track has a diameter of 350 ft. How far does a car drive if it completes one lap around the track?
Question 16 options:
1)
843 ft
2)
1,099 ft
3)
1,653 ft
4)
2,198 ft
The circumference of a circle is given by the formula C = πd, where d is the diameter. Therefore, the circumference of the race track is:
C = πd = π(350 ft) = 1,100 ft (rounded to the nearest foot)
Since one lap around the track covers the entire circumference, the car would drive 1,100 ft.
Therefore, the answer is option 2) 1,099 ft (rounded to the nearest foot).
