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

\[ C = \pi \times d \]

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

Given that the diameter \( d \) is 3.25 meters and using \( \pi \) as 3.14:

\[ C = 3.14 \times 3.25 \]

Now, let's calculate it:

\[ C = 3.14 \times 3.25 = 10.205 \text{ meters} \]

Now, rounding to the hundredths place:

The circumference \( 10.205 \) meters rounds to \( 10.21 \) meters.

Therefore, the correct answer is 10.21 meters.
