A common formula that is often used is
C = pi*d

where
C = circumference
pi = 3.14 approximately
d = diameter

So saying "the circumference is roughly 3 times the diameter" is appropriate because pi = 3.14 is roughly 3 if you round to the nearest whole number.

Answer: Choice A) three times the diameter
