It will take almost 2 hours to dig across the garden.

What is circumference of circle?

"It is the length of the boundary of the circle."

Formula for the circumference of circle:

[tex]c = 2\times \pi \times r[/tex]

What is rate?

"It is the distance covered per unit times."

For given question,

A circular garden has a circumference of 44 yards.

⇒ C = 44

⇒ 2 × π × r = 44

⇒ 2 × r = 14.01 yards

We know, the diameter of the circle is d = 2 × r

This means, the diameter of the circular ground is 14.01 yards.

here, the rate (s) = 7 yards per hour

Using the formula of rate,

[tex]\Rightarrow s=\frac{d}{t}\\\\\Rightarrow 7=\frac{14.01}{t}\\\\ \Rightarrow t= 2.001\\\\ \Rightarrow t\approx 2~~hours[/tex]

Therefore, it will take him almost 2 hours to dig across the garden.
