Answer :
Answer:
2355
Step-by-step explanation:
C = 2(3.14)r
C = 2(3.14)(125)
C = 785
785 feet * 12 inches = 9420
9420 / 4 will give us how much flowers
2355
Answer: 2355
So what do we know?
We know that the circumference of a circle is 2*pi*r.
Given we have a radius of 125 ft, we can do 2*3.14*125 which is 785 ft.
Since the circumference is 785 ft, we aren't done. The problem ALSO states how many flowers are needed to surround the circumference spaced at 4 inches apart.
We need to convert 785 ft to inches, which can be done by doing 785*12 which is 9420 inches. Since the problem states 4 inches of space per flower, we can multiply 9420 by 1/4 to get 2355.
So the number of flowers needed are 2355.
