in order to know how much of a given material in length it would take to wrap around it. Say the circumference of your beer can is 6 inches, if you got a 6 inch long piece of paper and some tape you could make your own lable.

What jobs use circumference?
Carpenters, architects, engineers or any field which would ever need to build or design a physical object. It is a basic skill that EVERYONE with a technical job should know.
You have the circumference and you need to know the diameter?
The formula for finding circumference is 2∏r (or ∏d). So to find the diameter, you would divide the circumference by pi (3.14, approximately).
How do you find the diameter of a circle in the terms of pi?
To find the diameter of a circle, you will either need to know the area or its circumference. If you know the area: diameter = 2 x squareroot(area / Pi) If you know the circumference diameter = circumference / Pi
How do you determine the length of the radius and diameter of a circle?
The answer depends on what information you are given. If you know the circumference, then divide by Pi and that is the diameter. Half of the diameter is the radius. If you don't know anything about the circle, you would need to measure and find the diameter.
How do you find diameter and circumference?
Where C=circumference, r= radius and d=diameter To find circumference: C=2 x pi x r or you can use the formula C=pi x d To find diameter just multiply the radius by 2 if you know what the radius is. If you do not know the radius, but you know the circumference and need diameter use the following formula: C/pi=d Happy Computing!!!
Why would you need to find the circumference of a circle?
As for example when constructing a round-about on a road you'll need to know its perimeter which is the circumference of a circle.
What is a situation where you would need to know the circumference of a circle?
The circumference of a circle would be needed as for example when constructing a circular swimming pool.

What do scientist measure distances around a circle?
if you want me to answer this i need to know the shape, or dimensions

Why do you need circumference?
well if a builder wants to know how large a circle needs to be for a zoo or anything, he/she would use circumference. Amanda Steffey
Why would someone need to calculate the circumference of the circle?
To know how fay you travel in one rotation of the wheel.
To locate an object what do you need to know?
to locate an object what do you need to know?
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. :)
How many linear feet are in 157 diameter?
To find the linear feet in a given diameter, you need to know the circumference (or perimeter) of the object. The formula to calculate the circumference is circumference = π × diameter. Without the circumference, it is not possible to determine the linear feet.
Why would you need to know how to find the perimeter of an object?
The lengths of each of its sides.
What must you know about an object to calculate its acceleration?
You might use Newton's Second Law. In this case, you would need to know (a) all forces that act on the object, and (b) the object's mass.
