circumference = 468 cm

Let us use a diagram to illustrate the question

The angle can be found below


\begin{gathered} \text{length of arc=}(x)/(360)*2\pi r \\ \text{circumference}=2\pi r \\ 2\pi r=468 \\ \text{Therefore,} \\ 332.8=(468x)/(360) \\ 468x=119808 \\ x=(119808)/(468) \\ x=256^(\circ) \end{gathered}

Angle = 256 degree's
