    The diameter of the plate would be equal to the length of a side of the box.

    Find the length of the box by dividing the perimeter by 4:

    28 / 4 = 7 inches.

    The diameter is 7 inches.

    Circumference is found by multiplying the diameter by pi:

    The exact circumference is 7PI

    Using 3.14 for pi, the decimal answer is:

    3.14 x 7 = 21.98 inches (round answer as needed.)
