    31.4 inches.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The diameter of the circle will be equal to the length of each side of the square which is 40/4 = 10 inches.

    Therefore the circumference of the copper circle

    = 3.14 * the diameter

    = 3.14 * 10

    = 31.4 inches.

    31.4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Each side of the square has a length of 40 * = 10 inches. 4

    The perimeter of the square minus the circumference of the circle is 40 - 31.4 = 8.6

    The radius of the circle is 10 = 5 inches, so the circumference of the circle is 2

    2 * π * 5 = 10 * 3.14 = 31.4 inches.
