Thank you Mitch, this is very helpful.
But I still have two questions:
1. Why the belt isn't equal to A+B+C instead of A+B+C+D since C=D?
2. Why C is not equal to 15-pi. Then C would be the answer. Meaning that it represents the distance between the centers.

Why this is not the case?

Thanks.

Hi Mitch ,

Why did you do A=1/2 pie. Please explain.

Also is there any other approach for this question?

Please advise.

Many thanks in advance.

SJ.

1/2 pi is used because each is 1/2 of a circle with a diameter of 1.



didieravoaka-

1) it would have to be A + B + 2C = 15
2) should make sense from #1
