The asteroid belt is roughly circular, with a radius of about 3 AU (astronomical unit; 1 AU = 149,597,870.7 km, the mean orbital radius of Earth).The formula for the circumference of a circle is C = 2πr, or πd. Therefore, the circumference of the asteroid belt is approximately 2,819,853,430 km.(Additionally, the width of the asteroid belt is about 1.5 AU, or slightly larger than Earth's distance from the sun.)
