A circular garden has a circumference of 40.25 feet. Find the approximate diameter of the garden. Use 3.14 for π . Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. Explain how you found your answer.

Answer 1

40.25/3.14 = about 12.82 inches

circumference = pi times diameter

C =piD

D = C/pi = 40.25/3.14 = 12.82
