To find the circumference \( C \) of a circle using the formula \( C = \pi d \), we need to first calculate the diameter \( d \) from the radius. The diameter is twice the radius:

\[ d = 2 \times r \]

Given that the radius \( r = 97 , \text{m} \):

\[ d = 2 \times 97 = 194 , \text{m} \]

Now, we plug the diameter into the circumference formula:

\[ C = \pi d = \pi \times 194 \]

Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \):

\[ C \approx 3.14 \times 194 \approx 608.26 \]

Rounding to the nearest whole number, we get:

\[ C \approx 608 , \text{m} \]

Looking at the provided choices, the closest option is:

609 m
