While a diagram is useful for many siuations, in this case, all you really needed to say was...Find the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 4 inches.
By the way, all circles are round!
The circumference of a circle is given by the formula: where D is the length of the diameter (4 inches) (the straight line through the center and terminting on the edges of the circle) and approximately.



The circumference of the circle is 12.56 inches.
