Sonya wants to put a ribbon border along the edge of her round tablecloth. The ribbon is sold in one-inch increments. If the diameter of the tablecloth is 38 inches, how many inches of ribbon will Sonya need to buy? Use 3.14 for π.

Answer :

You would need to find the circumference of the tablecloth.

The formula for circumference is C = PI x diameter.

The circumference of the tablecloth is: 3.14 x 38 = 119.32 inches.

Because the table is a little over 119 inches, she will need to buy 120 inches of ribbon.
