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

\[ C = \pi \times d \]

where:

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

You can rearrange the formula to solve for the diameter:

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

Substituting the given values:

\[ d = \frac{15.7 \text{ ft}}{3.14} \approx 5.00 \text{ ft} \]

Therefore, the diameter of the circle is approximately 5.00 ft.
