the approximate circumference of a large pizza is 72.22. Use 3.14 for pi . what is the diameter of the pizza
To find the diameter of the pizza, we first need to use the formula for the circumference of a circle:
C = πd
Given that the circumference of the pizza is approximately 72.22 and using the value of π as 3.14, we can plug in these values into the formula:
72.22 = 3.14d
To find the diameter (d), we need to isolate it. Divide both sides of the equation by 3.14:
d = 72.22 / 3.14
d ≈ 23
Therefore, the diameter of the pizza is approximately 23 inches.
