Answer:56.52m, Eugene used a wrong formula

Explanation:

diameter=18m

π=3.14

Circumference of circle=π x diameter

Circumference of circle=3.14 x 18

Circumference of circle=56.52m

Eugene used a wrong formula

Circumference of circle=2 x π x diameter

instead of

Circumference of circle=π x diameter
