Verified step by step guidance1
Recall the formula for the circumference of a circle: \(C = 2 \pi r\), where \(C\) is the circumference and \(r\) is the radius.
Substitute the given circumference value into the formula: \(16 = 2 \pi r\).
To isolate \(r\), divide both sides of the equation by \(2 \pi\): \(r = \frac{16}{2 \pi}\).
Simplify the fraction: \(r = \frac{16}{2 \pi} = \frac{8}{\pi}\).
Interpret the result: the radius \(r\) is \(\frac{8}{\pi}\) units. If you need a numerical approximation, you can calculate this value using \(\pi \approx 3.14\).
