Correct Answer: 21 cm


Solution : Let the radius of the first circle be $r_1$.
Circumference of the first circle $=2\pi r{_1}$
⇒ $308 = 2×\frac{22}{7}×r{_1}$
⇒ $r_1$ = 49 cm
Let the radius of the 2nd circle be $r_2$.
Circumference of the 2nd circle $=2\pi r{_2}$
⇒ $440 = 2×\frac{22}{7}×r{_2}$
⇒ $r_2$ = 70 cm
$\therefore$ Difference = (70 – 49) cm = 21 cm
Hence, the correct answer is 21 cm.
