To find the diameter of a circle given its circumference, you can use the formula for the circumference:

\[ C = \pi \times d \]

where \( C \) is the circumference and \( d \) is the diameter.

Given that the circumference \( C \) is approximately 574 meters and using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \), we can rearrange the formula to solve for the diameter \( d \):

\[ d = \frac{C}{\pi} \]

Substituting the values we have:

\[ d = \frac{574}{3.14} \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ d \approx \frac{574}{3.14} \approx 183.4 \text{ meters} \]

Therefore, the diameter of the circle, rounded to the nearest tenth, is approximately:

\[ \boxed{183.4 \text{ meters}} \]
