Circumference = πd
C= 250(3.14)
C=785

The circumference of ANY circle is (pi) times (diameter). Doesn't matter
if it's one tiny link in the silver chain of a necklace or the circular orbit of
a planet.

 Circumference = (pi) times (diameter) .

Please memorize that. In high school, you should already have it memorized.

The diameter of the ferris wheel is 250-ft.

 Exact answer: Circumference = 250 pi feet

You can't write the exact answer completely in numbers,
because you can't write 'pi' completely in numbers.

 Approximation using pi = 3.14 :

 Circumference = (250) x (3.14) = 785 feet
