The formula to calculate the circumference of a circle is C = Οd, where C represents the circumference and d represents the diameter.
Given that the diameter of the circle is 1/2 inch, we can calculate the circumference using the approximation of Ο as 3.14.
C = 3.14 * (1/2)
C = 3.14/2
C β 1.57 inches
Therefore, the approximate circumference of the circle with a diameter of 1/2 inch is 1.57 inches.
