18.84

Explanation:

the formula to find the area of circle is: A=pi*r^2
the area is already stated so,
28.26=pi*r^2

28.26/pi=r^2
8.995437=r^2

sqrt(8.995437)=r

2.999239=r

we have found that the radius is 2.999239 and the formula for circumference of a circle is: pi*d
2.999239*2=5.99848 (multiply by 2 to get the diameter)

5.99848*pi=18.84478

so the answer is 18.84
