Answer:

Option 3rd is correct

the circumference of the  a circular swimming pool is, 88 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of the circle(C) is given by:

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

where,

r is the radius of the circle.

As per the statement:

A contractor is building a circular swimming pool. The radius of the circle 14 feet.

⇒ r = 14 ft

Substitute the given values in [1] we have;

[tex]C = 2 \cdot \frac{22}{7} \cdot 14 = 2 \cdot 22 \cdot 2[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]C = 88 ft[/tex]

Therefore, the circumference of the  a circular swimming pool is, 88 ft
