Answer:

C

Explanation:

Circumference can be found using

c=
\pid

We know the circumference is 18, so we can substitute it in

18=
\pid

We want to find d, so we have to isolate it.

To do this, divide both sides by pi

d=5.72957795131

Rounded to the nearest hundreth

d=5.73

Diameter is 5.73 inches, or choice C
