Math Problem Statement
the diameter of a cicrle is 580m, what is the circumfrence, in km?
Solution
The circumference of a circle is given by the formula:
where is the diameter.
Given meters:
Since 1 kilometer = 1000 meters:
Final Answer:
The circumference is 1.823 km.
Would you like a more detailed explanation? Here are some related questions:
- What is the radius of the circle?
- How would the circumference change if the diameter were doubled?
- What is the area of this circle?
- How can we express the circumference in terms of radius instead of diameter?
- If you walked around this circle once, how many steps would it take assuming each step is 0.8 meters?
Tip:
Always double-check units when converting between meters and kilometers to avoid mistakes!
