To solve the exercise shown above you must apply the following proccedure:

 1. The information given in the problem is:

 - The distance around a meteor crater is 9,687 ft.
 - You must use use 22\7 for 
π.

 2. Therefore, you must apply the formula for calculate the perimeter of a circle, which is:

 P=
πD

 P is the perimeter of the circle (P=9,687 ft).
 D is the diameter of the circle.

 3. When you clear D, you obtain:

 D=P/π
 D=(9,687 ft)/(22/7)
 D=3,082.2 ft

 4. Therefore, the answer is: 3,082.2 ft
