A flying disc is assumed to be in the shape of a circle. Since we know it is in the shape of a circle, we can use the formula for circumference of a circle.
The formula for circumference of a circle is d * pi, where d represents the diameter of the circle and pi is the representation of 3.14.
You can find the circumference of a circle by multiplying the diameter by pi, and since the question gives us the diameter of the flying disc we can substitute in 9 inches for the diameter to solve for the circumference.
diameter * pi
(9 inches) * ([tex]\pi[/tex]) = 28.2743...
The question wants the final answer to be rounded to the nearest tenth, so rounding 28.2743... to the nearest tenth would make it into 28.27.
The answer to this problem is the circumference of the disc is 28.27 inches.
