Well to do this you have to master the art of algebra :)

C= π (pie) x Diameter

Diameter= Circumference/π (pie) (C divided by Pie)..........we need to have D on its own so we do the opposite of multiply on the pie to get diameter on its own.

∴ D= C/π (pie)

How do you find the diameter of a circle with only the circumference?

Divide the circumference by Pi.


If the diameter of a baseball is 3 inches what is the circumference?

The circumferance is found by using the formula 2(r)(pi). r stands for the radius. The diameter, which is already given in the problem, is two time radius. Therefore the only thing you really have to do is multiple the diameter= 3 inches by pi. Circumferance is 9.425 inches.


How do you find the circumference of a circle without knowing the area?

To find the circumference of a circle, you need only know the radius or diameter of the circle. The circumference of a circle is calculated as 2 x Pi x radius OR Pi x diameter. Pi is approximately 3.1415926.


How do you find the radius of a circle only knowing the circumference?

The equation for finding the circumference of a circle is diameter times pi so reverse it to circumference divided by pi which leaves the diameter. The diameter is twice as big as the radius so divide the diameter by 2 and you will find the radius.


How do you find circumference if you know diameter?

If you know the diameter and need the circumference you times the diameter of the circle by 3.14 also known as pie. That is how you get the circumference by only knowing the diameter. :)


Do you have to find the radius for diameter?

Not necessarily. The diameter is only twice the radius, so that's an easy way to find the diameter. However, if you have the circumference, you can divide by pi to get the diameter, or just measure across the circle.


Find diameter when you only have area of a circle?

pi*radius2 = area of a circle radius2 = area/pi radius = square root of (area/pi) diameter = 2*radius
