How do you find the diameter of the circumference if a circle?

There is no such thing as "the diameter of the circumference" of a circle. A circle has a diameter, and a circle has a circumference. If you know one, you can always figure out the other one, because they're very tightly connected. Circumference = (diameter) times (pi) Diameter = (circumference) divided by (pi) "pi" = about 3.1415926536 (rounded). You can use 3.14 and your answers will be very close.


What is the unit for finding a circumference?
