Given: Diameter = 7 meters

Find: Circumference to the nearest tenth

C=2πr

Find first the radius.

Since diameter is twice the radius. Radius is equal to diameter divided by two.

r = d/2

r= 7/2

r = 3.5

Substituting the value of r in the equation C=2πr

C=2π(3.5)

C= 21.99 meters

Round to the nearest tenth

C= 20 meters
