Correct Answer: 111 cm


Solution : The diameter of the circle is 42 cm, so the radius($r$) is half of the diameter, which is 21 cm.
The circumference ($C$) of a circle is, $C = 2\pi r$
Substituting the given values into the formula,
$C = 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 21 = 132$ cm
So, the difference between the lengths of the circumference and the radius of the circle
= $C - r$ = 132 – 21 = 111 cm
Hence, the correct answer is 111 cm.
