first you need to use the formula that tells you the area of a circle, and work backwards. This will tell you the radius... from the radius, you can multiply 2r to = d... d is the diameter... from the diameter, you can find the circumference... that is your answer.

btw, i agree with the person before, you need to do your own homework... do not try to trick someone into doing it for you with a "brain teaser"

Now is this really a brain teaser, or is it your homework? I think you need to figure it out for yourself.
