The formula for the circumference \( C \) of a circle is given by:
\[ C = 2\pi r \]
where \( r \) is the radius and \( \pi \) is approximately 3.14.
Given:
- Radius \( r = 17 \) cm
- \( \pi \approx 3.14 \)
Substituting these values into the formula:
\[ C = 2 \times 3.14 \times 17 \]
Calculating the right side:
\[ C = 6.28 \times 17 \] \[ C = 106.76 \text{ cm} \]
Therefore, the circumference of the circle is:
\[ \boxed{106.76} \text{ cm} \]
