To find the circumference \( C \) of a circle, you can use the formula:
\[
C = \pi \times d
\]
where \( d \) is the diameter of the circle. Given that the diameter is 16 centimeters, we can substitute this value into the formula:
\[
C = \pi \times 16
\]
Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \):
\[
C \approx 3.14 \times 16
\]
Now, calculate the multiplication:
\[
C \approx 3.14 \times 16 = 50.24
\]
Thus, the circumference of the circle is approximately
\[
\boxed{50.24} \text{ centimeters}.
\]
\[
C = \pi \times d
\]
where \( d \) is the diameter of the circle. Given that the diameter is 16 centimeters, we can substitute this value into the formula:
\[
C = \pi \times 16
\]
Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \):
\[
C \approx 3.14 \times 16
\]
Now, calculate the multiplication:
\[
C \approx 3.14 \times 16 = 50.24
\]
Thus, the circumference of the circle is approximately
\[
\boxed{50.24} \text{ centimeters}.
