Example Question #41 : Know And Use The Formulas For The Area And Circumference Of A Circle: Ccss.Math.Content.7.G.B.4

Find the circumference of a circle given the radius is 7.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve, simply use the formula for the circumference of a circle. Thus,

Another way to similarly solve this problem is to remember that circumference is just pi times the diameter. To find the diameter, remember "di" means two, thus two radii. So, if you multiply the radius by 2, then you have the diameter. Then, just multiply by pi.
