Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

C=2πr times 10 laps

She did πr times 10 laps then multplied it by 10 again.

she needed to do 2π(12) times 10 which is equal to 754.

The calculation of the total distance run by Erin was calculated wrongly.

The total distance that Erin would run can be determined by multiplying the number of laps run by the circumference of a circle.

Circumference of a circle = 2πr

Where:

  • π = pi =  3.14
  • r = radius = 12 yards

Circumference of a circle = 2 x 3.14 x 12 = 75.36 yards

Total distance = 75.36 x 10 = 753.60 yards
