What is the approximate circumference of a circle that has a diameter of 25 yards?

Round your answer to one decimal place. Use 3.14 for [tex]\pi[/tex].

A. 75 yd
B. 39.3 yd
C. 78.5 yd
D. 82.3 yd

Answer :

To find the approximate circumference of a circle with a diameter of 25 yards, you can use the formula for the circumference of a circle:

[tex]\[ \text{Circumference} = \pi \times \text{diameter} \][/tex]

You are given that:

- The diameter of the circle is 25 yards.
- Use 3.14 as an approximation for [tex]\(\pi\)[/tex].

Now, plug these values into the formula:

[tex]\[ \text{Circumference} = 3.14 \times 25 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \text{Circumference} = 78.5 \][/tex]

Therefore, the approximate circumference of the circle, rounded to one decimal place, is 78.5 yards. The correct answer is 78.5 yd.
