    SA = surface area of the sphere

    SA = 4*pi*r^2

    200 = 4*pi*r^2

    200 = 4*3.14*r^2

    200 = 12.56*r^2

    12.56*r^2 = 200

    r^2 = 200/12.56

    r^2 = 15.9235668789809

    r = sqrt (15.9235668789809)

    r = 3.99043442233811

    The radius is r = 3.99043442233811

    so the diameter is

    d = 2*r

    d = 2*3.99043442233811

    d = 7.98086884467621

    Answer: 7.98086884467621

    Round this however you need to
