Hello!
To solve this you use the equation to find the circumference of a circle which is
[tex]C = 2 \pi r[/tex]
C is circumference
r is radius which is half the diameter
Put in the values you know and 3.14 for pi
C = 2 * 3.14 * 24
Multiply
C = 150.72
The answer is 150.72 centimeters
Hope this helps!
