MCQ
If the difference between the circumference and the radius of a circle is $37 \ cm,$ then using $\pi = \frac{22}{7},$ the circumference $($in $\ cm)$ of the circle is :
  • A
    $154$
  • B
    $14$
  • $44$
  • D
    $7$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$44$
Circumference of the circle $2\times\text{pi}\times\text{r}$
$=\frac{2\times22}{7\times\text{r}}=\frac{44\times\text{r}}{7}$
Where $r =$ radius
Now,
Given difference $= 37$
$\frac{44\times\text{r}}{7-\text{r}}=37$
$\text{f}\Big\{\big(\frac{44}{7}\big)\Big\}=37$
$\text{r}\big(\frac{37}{7}\big)=37\text{ cm}$
$\text{r}=7$
Circumference of the circle $= 2 \times pi \times r$
$=2\times\big(\frac{22}{7}\big)\times7$
$=44\text{ cm}$
