Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If the circumference of a circle is 31.4 units, what is the radius? (Use π = 3.14) (2020)
  • Step 1: Write down the formula for the circumference of a circle, which is C = 2πr.
  • Step 2: Substitute the value of the circumference (C = 31.4) into the formula: 31.4 = 2πr.
  • Step 3: Use the value of π (3.14) in the equation: 31.4 = 2 * 3.14 * r.
  • Step 4: Calculate 2 * 3.14, which equals 6.28. Now the equation is: 31.4 = 6.28r.
  • Step 5: To find r, divide both sides of the equation by 6.28: r = 31.4 / 6.28.
  • Step 6: Calculate 31.4 divided by 6.28, which equals 5. Therefore, the radius r is 5.
