The formula to calculate a circumference of a circle is:
circumference = π x diameter of the circle (D)
so
200 = π x D
rearranging
D = 200/π
π is a constant equal to approx 3.14
D = 200/3.14
D = 63.69
So if the diameter of the circle is 63.69, then the radius is half of this figure, so the radius is 31.85, or 32 rounded to the nearest whole number.
