To find the diameter of a circle when you have the circumference, you can use the formula:

\[ C = \pi \times d \]

Where:

  • \( C \) is the circumference,
  • \( d \) is the diameter, and
  • \( \pi \) (pi) is approximately 3.14.

Given the circumference \( C = 574 \) meters, you can rearrange the formula to solve for the diameter \( d \):

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

Substituting the values:

\[ d = \frac{574}{3.14} \approx 183.4 \]

Therefore, the circle’s diameter, rounded to the nearest tenth, is approximately 183.4 meters.
