Hello, Zanariah.
OKay, so the formula for the circumference of a circle is πd , where d is the diameter. Let's use 3.14 for the value of pi.
πd = 12.56
Now divide both sides by π to isolate r.
d= 12.56 ÷ π = 12.56 ÷ 3.14
d = 4
Since the circumference is in inches, the answer will also be in inches.
Therefore, d = 4 inches
