Circumference

//__**CIRCUMFERENCE **__//

__//**CIRCUMFERENCE**//__ - Is the distance around the outside of a circle. ( Or a circle's perimeter.)

** TO FIND CIRCUMFERENCE ** you multiply the **DIAMETER** ,or a line that goes from any point on the outside of the circle, directly through the center, and to the opposite point, by **PI,** or **3.14**. If the **RADIUS**, or a line that goes from any point on the outside of the circle to the center, is shown, multiply that by 2 to get the diameter and then multiply the diameter by pi (3.14).

__ WHEN THE DIAMETER -- RADIUS IS SHOWN __


 * D (diameter) = 7 in --- R (radius) = 2 m
 * 7 times 3.14 (pi) --- 2 times 2 (to get diameter) =4 times 3.14 (pi)
 * 7 times 3 = 21 4 times 3 = 12
 * 7 times 0.14 = 0.98 4 times 0.14 = 0.56
 * 21 + 0.98 = 21.98 - 12 + 0.56 = 12.56
 * C (circumference) = 21.98 inches --- C = 12.56 meters
