What is the approximate circumference of a circle that has a diameter of 20? Use 3.14 for π and express your answer to the tenths place.(1 point)

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

Given that the diameter of the circle is 20, we can calculate the circumference as follows:

C = 3.14 * 20
C = 62.8

Therefore, the approximate circumference of the circle is 62.8.

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 . (1 point)

meters

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

Given that the circumference of the circle is approximately 574 meters and π is 3.14, we can calculate the diameter as follows:

574 = 3.14 * d
d = 574 / 3.14
d ≈ 182.16

Rounded to the nearest tenth, the diameter of the circle is approximately 182.2 meters.

wrong

Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct the calculation:

Given that the circumference of the circle is approximately 574 meters and π is 3.14, we can calculate the diameter as follows:

C = π * d
574 = 3.14 * d
d ≈ 574 / 3.14
d ≈ 182.1656051

Rounded to the nearest tenth, the diameter of the circle is approximately 182.2 meters.
