FINDING THE RATIO OF CIRCUMFERENCE TO DIAMETER
In this project, students will use flexible tape measures to approximate the
circumference and diameter of 10 different circular objects. They will
record the distance around the circular object and the distance across the
circular object (through the center point) in centimeters on the given table.
Once all distances are recorded, the student will use a calculator to divide
the circumference by the diameter and then record their answer on the table
in the appropriate box. This answer should be approximated to 2 decimal
places.
