The formula to find the circumference \( C \) of a circle is:

\[ C = 2\pi r \]

where \( r \) is the radius. Given that the radius \( r = 12 \) and using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \), we can substitute the values into the formula:

\[ C = 2 \times 3.14 \times 12 \]

Now, calculate it step by step:

  1. Calculate \( 2 \times 3.14 = 6.28 \)
  2. Then multiply by the radius: \( 6.28 \times 12 = 75.36 \)

So, the approximate circumference is \( 75.36 \).

The correct response is:

75.36
