Find the distance around a circular track if it is 100 feet across. (Use 3.14 for π.)

Verified Answer :

Answer:

The distance around a circular track if it is 100 feet across is 314 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of circle is given by:

\(C = \pi D\)            ....[1]

where

C is the circumference of a circle.

D is the diameter of a circle.

As per the statement:

A circular track if it is 100 feet across.

⇒ \(D = 100 ft\)

then

substitute this value in [1] we have;

\(C = 3.14 \cdot 100\)

Simplify:

\(C = 314\) feet

Therefore, the distance around a circular track if it is 100 feet across is 314 feet.
