Question 132722: I am a little confused about diameters. I would be grateful for any assistance available. The problem states: A circular path around a lake has a diameter of 1,500 feet (ft). Pranotti jogs around the path 5 times for her morning run. How far does she run? Use 3.14 for pie and round your answer to the nearest foot. Answer by elima(1433) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The diameter of a circle is the length across the center.The formula for circumference (which is the length around the circle);
c=d
c=15000
c=4710
So the distance around the pond is, 4710, since he went around it 5 times we multiply;
4710(5)=23550ft
