The complete formula for circumference is:



C=\pi d


Since we know the circumference of the circle is 314 inches, we can then solve for d, the diameter:



314=\pi d


Using 3.14 for pi, we get:



314=(3.14)d


Then solve for d:



d=100


And now we know the diameter of the circle is 100 inches.
