If a circle has a radius of 14 feet, how many 6-inch pencils can be placed end-to-end across the diameter of the circle?
How many feet is the diameter of the circle? ** A circle with a radius of 14 feet has a diameter of 2*14=<<14*2=28>>28 feet.
How many inches is a six-inch pencil? ** A six-inch pencil is 6/12=<<6/12=0.5>>0.5 feet long.
How many 6-inch pencils can be placed across the diameter of the circle? ** Thus, across a 28-foot diameter, one can place 28/0.5=<<28/0.5=56>>56 6-inch pencils.
