Answer:

18.8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the drain is in the center, the distance between the drain and the edge is the radius of the circular fountain.

Use the circumference formula: C = 2[tex]\pi[/tex]r, and plug in 3 as r (the radius).

C = 2[tex]\pi[/tex]r

C = 2[tex]\pi[/tex](3)

Solve for C:

C = 6[tex]\pi[/tex]

C = 18.8

So, the circumference of the fountain is approximately 18.8 feet
