Answer:
radius = 1.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for circumference is as follows:
[tex]C = d\pi[/tex]
or
[tex]C = 2r\pi[/tex]
However, these formulas are the same, because the diameter is equal to the radius times 2. I prefer to use the first (it gives you less values to work with).
Anyhow, We would substitute like this:
[tex]8.8 = d\pi[/tex]
We know that pi, is going to be equal to: 3.14159
So we work from there...
[tex]8.8=d(3.14159)\\2.8011=d[/tex]
Diameter divided by 2 would be the radius, and thats:
1.4006
or 1.4
