There can be no average diameter for a black hole due to the fact that all black holes are unique in size and diameter, reaching from the diameter of 18 billion suns tied together and less than half a star's diameter. they are all different sizes and no one actually knows for sure whether they are actually holes considering that they are completely invisible to all eyes. because their gravitational pull is so powerful that not even light escapes.
Yes, black holes have a diameter, which is referred to as the event horizon. The event horizon is the region beyond which nothing, not even light, can escape the immense gravitational pull of the black hole. This diameter can vary depending on the mass of the black hole.
The diameter is usually considered the diameter of the event horizon. The diameter of this event horizon is directly proportional to the black hole's mass.

In Jan 1987, John Cormedy of Dominion Astrophysical Observatory in Canada discovers the balck hole in Galaxy Andromeda and estimated that the diameter of black hole in Andromeda Galaxy is 10 million times as massive as the Sun.
Well if your comparing the smallest black hole knowen to humans to the Earth YES THEY ARE BIG but there is no definant diameter or size considering that all black holes are unique in all three size diameter and gravataional pull.
There is no theoretical limit to the MASS of a black hole. The largest known black holes have a mass in excess of a billion solar masses... so far. In the distant future, you can expect them to continue growing.The DIAMETER or the RADIUS of a black hole is directly proportional to the black hole's mass; the radius would be about 3.0 kilometers for every solar mass. The diameter, of course, is twice as much. Thus, a black hole of 10 billion solar masses would have a radius of 30 billion kilometers... about 200 AU.

If the Sun collapsed into a black hole, it would be about 3 kilometers in diameter.

A black hole can have anywhere between a few Sun masses, and several billion Sun masses (the so-called "supermassive black holes"). The diameter of the event horizon, if that's what you mean, is directly proportional to the black hole's mass - in other words, more massive black holes have a larger diameter.

The premise of the question is faulty: a black hole is a star with a diameter less than the Chandrasekhar diameter. The body within the black hole can have a range of sizes depending on the mass of the object and its degree of compression. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chandrasekhar_limit

A black hole has more mass than a neutron star, but if you are comparing volume it would depend on the mass of the black hole. A neutron star is estimated to be about 14 miles in diameter, which is larger than the event horizon of a black hole up to about 3.8 times the mass of the sun. A more massive black hole will be larger.
The relevant magnitude is mainly the black holes' mass. Since black holes are the result of collapsing stars, yes, there are black holes with the mass of a star.The diameter is usually taken as the diameter of the event horizon. This diameter is directly proportional to the mass; a supermassive black hole such as Sag A* has a diameter comparable to that of a large star.
Currently, the way the mass of a black hole is measured is indirectly determined by the speed of its rotation and/or its gravitational influence. Note: Theoretically, the faster a black hole rotates, the more massive it is. The gravitational influence is estimated by the diameter of the event horizon (or even as the difference between the spherical edge of the event horizon and the edge of the oblate diameter of its ergosphere). Also the latest consensus is that there is not a relevant relationship between the observable size of the accumulated bulge about the Black Hole and the size of the Black Hole itself.
Assuming you mean the event horizon of a black hole (there are other types as well), the diameter of a black hole as measured by its event horizon is directly proportional to its mass. The larger the mass, the larger the diameter. Thus, as a black hole's mass increases, it will get bigger. The only limitation is how much mass a black hole is able to incorporate from its surroundings.
