Branliest offered a. what is the circumference of the colony? b. what is the radius of the colony? bacteria lives in groups called colonies colonies are usually circular the diameter of a particular bacterial colony is 12 mm their circumference of a circle is equal to pi 3.14 times its diameter c= πd

The circumference can be obtained fairly easily by simply substituting the d in c = πd for the colony's given diameter of 12 mm. Performing that calculation using the approximation of π ≈ 3.14, we obtain a circumference of 12 x 3.14 = 37.68 mm.

To find the radius, remember how the diameter and radius of a circle are defined. The radius is a length extending from the center of a circle to a point on its circumference, and a diameter is a line extending from one point on the circle's circumference to an opposite point, passing through the circle's center along the way. The diameter can, in this way, be defined as twice the length of the radius, which means we can find the radius of a circle by taking half of its diameter. In this case, our diameter is 12 mm, so our radius would be 6 mm.

Maybe the answer is 20mm. all i really did was just multiply, which is obvious.
