Circumference Game
The circumference is the perimeter of a circle. To calculate it, you only need one measurement: either the radius or the diameter. Both formulas involve the constant Pi (π), which is approximately 3.14. You can also select to find the radius/diameter given the circumference. Scroll down the page for a more detailed explanation.

In this game, you may select “Find Circumference” or “Find Diameter/Radius”. Approximate π to 3.14 and round answers to two decimal places. If you give a wrong answer, the game will provide the correct answer.

How to Find the Circumference of a Circle

Finding Circumference Given the Diameter
The simplest way to calculate the circumference is to multiply the diameter by Pi. The diameter is the distance across the circle, passing through the center.
The Formula:
C= πd
where
C is the circumference.
π is approximately 3.14.
d is the diameter.
Finding Circumference Given the Radius
The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to the edge. Since the diameter is twice the radius (d = 2r), we modify the formula accordingly.
The Formula:
C = 2πr
where
C is the circumference.
2r represents the diameter.
r is the radius.

The video gives a clear, step-by-step approach to calculate the circumference of a circle.

How to Find the Diameter of a Circle

Use the formula C=πd, where C is the circumference and d is the diameter.
Divide the circumference (C) by pi (π) to find the diameter (d).
d=C/π
For an approximate value, use 3.14 for &pi.

How to Find the Radius of a Circle

Once you have the diameter, divide it by 2 to find the radius. r=d/2.
Alternatively, you can use the formula r=C/(2π) to find the radius directly from the circumference.
