Meka plans to bake a large circular cookie for her brother. She wants to decorate the outer edge of the cookie with small pieces of chocolate. The radius of the cookie is 7 inches. Which is the closest to the circumference of the cookie?
The circumfrence will be 43.98230 inches
C=Circumference
r=radius
C=2*r*pi= 2*7*3.14159 =14*3.14159= 43.98226 in
C=almost 44 in
To find the circumference of a circle, you can use the formula:
Circumference = 2 * π * radius
Where π (pi) is a constant approximately equal to 3.14.
In this case, the radius of the cookie is given as 7 inches. Let's substitute this value into the formula:
Circumference = 2 * 3.14 * 7
Circumference ≈ 2 * 3.14 * 7
Circumference ≈ 43.96
So, the closest approximation to the circumference of the cookie is 43.96 inches.
