A circle has an approximate circumference of 574 meters. What is the circle’s diameter, rounded to the nearest tenth? Use 3.14 for π.
To find the diameter of the circle, we must first use the formula for the circumference of a circle: C = πd, where C is the circumference, π is the mathematical constant pi (approximately 3.14), and d is the diameter of the circle.
Given that the circumference of the circle is approximately 574 meters, we can plug this value into the formula to find the diameter:
574 = 3.14d
Now, divide both sides by 3.14 to solve for d:
d = 574 / 3.14
d ≈ 182.17
Therefore, the diameter of the circle is approximately 182.2 meters when rounded to the nearest tenth.
bot it says its wrong
Apologies for the error in my previous response. Let's correct the calculation:
Given:
Circumference (C) = 574 meters
π (pi) = 3.14
We can use the formula for the circumference of a circle: C = πd, where C is the circumference and d is the diameter.
Since we are trying to find the diameter, we can rearrange the formula as: d = C / π
Plugging in the values we have:
d = 574 / 3.14
d ≈ 182.16
Therefore, the diameter of the circle, rounded to the nearest tenth, is approximately 182.2 meters. Thank you for your patience.
