If a circle has a radius of 14 feet, how many 6-inch pencils can be placed end-to-end across the diameter of the circle?
Let's be accurate as possible and think first.
56
A circle with a radius of 14 feet has a diameter of 2 * 14 = 28 feet.

A six - inch pencil is 6 / 12 = 0.

5 feet long.

Thus, across a 28 - foot diameter, one can place 28 / 0.

5 = 56 6 - inch pencils.

The final answer: 56
