**Find the circumference of the circle. Use 3.14 for** π**.  Round to the nearest hundredth.** 


To find the circumference of the circle, we can use the formula for the circumference of a circle:

\[ C = 2\pi r \]

Given that the diameter of the circle is 6 miles, the radius \( r \) is half of the diameter:

\[ r = \frac{6}{2} = 3 \text{ miles} \]

Now, using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \), we can calculate the circumference:

\[ C = 2 \times 3.14 \times 3 \]

\[ C = 6.28 \times 3 \]

\[ C = 18.84 \text{ miles} \]

Therefore, the circumference of the circle is approximately 18.84 miles.

Here are some related questions for further practice:
1. What is the area of the circle with the same radius?
2. How would the circumference change if the radius were doubled?
3. What is the diameter if the circumference is given as 25.12 miles?
4. How does the value of \(\pi\) affect the calculation of the circumference?
5. If the radius was given in kilometers instead of miles, how would you convert it?
6. How would you explain the relationship between the diameter and circumference?
7. If the circumference was given, how would you find the radius?
8. What is the difference between calculating circumference using \(\pi\) as 3.14 versus using a more precise value?

**Tip:** Always double-check your calculations for accuracy, especially when working with constants like \(\pi\).
