Circle Circumference Calculator

Find the distance around a circle from its radius.

—

This result is the total distance around the edge of the circle, so a circle with this radius needs a border or tape of that length to go all the way around it.

Formula

Circumference = 2 × π × radius.

How it works

Enter the radius. The calculator multiplies it by 2 and by pi to give the length around the circle.

Worked example

For example, a radius of 5 gives 2 × π × 5 = 31.4159 units, so the circumference is 31.4159 units.
