The circumference of a circle is calculated using the formula:
Circumference = π * diameter
Given that the approximate circumference of the flag is 56.52 inches, we can rearrange the formula to solve for the diameter:
56.52 inches = 3.14 * diameter
Dividing both sides of the equation by 3.14, we get:
diameter = 56.52 inches / 3.14
Simplifying the equation, we find:
diameter ≈ 18 inches
Therefore, the diameter of the flag is approximately 18 inches.
