For a button to fit through its buttonhole, the hole needs to be the size of the button's diameter. What size buttonhole is need
jasenka [17]
Diameter is 2.36 cm.

Given:
Circumference = 7.38 cm

Circumference of a circle is computed by multiplying 2, pi, and its radius.

C = 2πr

7.38 = 2 (3.14) r
7.38 = 6.28r
7.38/6.28 = 6.28r/6.28
1.18 = radius

Diameter = 2r
Diameter = 2(1.18)
Diameter = 2.36 cm

HOW TO ADD 5 5\6+2 2\3 =
dybincka [34]

Answer: 8.50

Step-by-step explanation: I like to turn fractions into deciamls.

5/6 = .83  (I get 0.83 by 5 divided by 6)

2/3 = .66  (I also got 0.66 by 2 divided by 3)

.8333 + .66 = 149 = 1.49333

5 + 2 = 7 + 1.49 = 8.49

Now round up 8.49333 and you'll get 8.50 or 8 ¹/²

Let me know if I'm wrong, have a good day!
