What is a circle?

It is a locus of a point drawn at an equidistant from the center. The distance from the center to the circumference is called the radius of the circle.

A pizza has a diameter (D) of 16 inches. Then the radius (R) of the pizza will be

[tex]\rm R = \dfrac{D}{2}\\\\R = \dfrac{16}{2}\\\\R = 8[/tex]

The best approximation for the circumference of the pizza will be

[tex]\rm Circumference = 2 \pi R\\\\Circumference = 2 *3.14 * 8\\\\Circumference = 50.24 \approx 50.2[/tex]

The best approximation for the circumference of the pizza is 50.2 inches. Then the correct option is C.
