Answer:


C=23\pi inches

or as a decimal

72.26 inches

Explanation:

Formula for circumference:
C=2\pi r

Radius =
(d)/(2)

Altogether we get:
C=2*\pi*(d)/(2)

Which simplifies to:
C=\pi d

So now we can plug in 23 for
d.


C=\pi*23

Our final answer is:


C=23\pi inches

or as a decimal

72.26 inches
