ANSWER

24901.55 miles

Step-by-step explanation

We have to find the circumference of the earth using the diameter given.

The formula for circumference is:


C=\pi\cdot D

where D = diameter

Therefore, the circumference is:


\begin{gathered} C=\pi\cdot7926.41 \\ C=24901.55\text{ miles} \end{gathered}
