    Default Math Question

    Ok guys, we're going way back here. (I could research this on the internet...but I figured someone here would know!)

    If I know the circumfrence of a circle, how do I find out the radius/diamter? Thanks! (I'm bettin' its got something to do with Pi, yes?)

    Divide it by pi (3.14) to get the diameter. Divide the diameter by 2 to get the radius.

    Thanks! I knew it had something to do with Pi, but I couldn't remember the formula!
