Question

kelly needs to put trim around a circular tablecloth with a diameter of 36 inches use the equation C=pi*d to find three sets of approximations for the amount of trim she will need.truncate the value of pi to the ones, tenths and hundredths place. then determine how much trim she should buy

Answer 1

Answer:

  about 113.1 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

For π ≈ 3

  The circumference is 36π, about 36·3 = 108 inches.

For π ≈ 3.1

  The circumference is 36π, about 36·3.1 = 111.6 inches.

For π ≈ 3.14

  The circumference is 36π, about 36·3.14 = 113.04 inches.

It appears to be appropriate for Kelly to buy about 113.1 inches of trim.
