Bill measures the circumference of a circular fish pond to be 28 ft.


What is the diameter of the fish pond, rounded to the nearest foot?

Use 3.14 to approximate pi.

Verified Answer :

Circumfrence of a circle formula:

\(C=\pi d\)
(C = circumfrence, π = pi, d = diameter)

Let's plug in what we know.

\(28=3.14d\)

Divide each side by 3.14 to find d.

\(8.917\approx d\)

Round to the nearest foot...

\(\boxed{d\approx9}\)
