A dinner plate having a diameter of 7 in approximately is given.

The distance around a circle is called the circumference.It is the perimeter of the circle.

The circumference of a circle can be found by multiplying pi ( π = 3.14 ) by the diameter of the circle.

Circumference is a special case of perimeter.

Circumference =
\pi .d

Given dinner plate has a diameter of 7 in.

Substituting d=7in we have:

Circumference =
\pi (7)=3.14 (7)=21.98 in
