The distance across a circle through the center is called the diameter. The distance around a circle is called the circumference. Pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the diameter. So,
2 radius x Pi = circumference
Pi is approximately 3.14159265358979323846...

linear. As the diameter of circle increases the circumference of that circle increases. Diameter x pi = Circumference, Diameter x 2 x pi = Circumference x 2.
diameter = pi x circumference (pi = 3.1416 approximately)
To find circumference, multiply diameter by pi.
To find diameter, divide circumference by pi.
circumference = pi*diameter or pi = circumference/diameter
Because the circumference of any circle divided by its diameter is always equal to pi.
Circumfrence = pi * diameter It can be experimentally derived very easily.
The circumference is ALL the way around the circle, while the radius is only HALF way into the middle of the circle. I'm guessing you meant "What is the relationship between the radius of a circle and its circumference?" Radius is half of the diameter of a circle, circumference is PI times diameter; therefore, the circumference is PI times two times radius.
81.2m (approx). 'Pi' (approx 3.142 ) is the quantity that expresses the relationship between the diameter of a circle and its circumference. ie. the circumference is 3.142 times greater than the diameter. To solve your problem, divide 255 metres by 3.142
