The diameter of a cylinder is measured using a vernier callipers with no zero error. It is found that the zero of the vernier scale lies between $5.10 \ cm$ and $5.15 \ cm$ of the main scale. The vernier scale has $50$ division equivalent to $2.45 \ cm$. The $24^{\text {th }}$ division of the vernier scale exactly coincides with one of the main scale divisions. The diameter of the cylinder is :
