Madilynn Herman · Answer 1

To determine if the amount of lace is enough to be placed around the tablecloth, we determine the circumference of the tablecloth through the equation,

C = 2πr

where C is circumference,

r is the radius

Substituting the known values,

C = 2π (3 ft) = 18.85 ft

Hence, the 15 ft lace will not be enough for the tablecloth.
