## Text Solution

What is known?

Radius of the circle

What is unknown?

The circumference of the circles.

Reasoning:

In this question, radius of the circle is given. Put the value of the radius in the formula of circumference of the circle to find out the circumference.

Steps:

(a) Circumference of the circle

\begin{align} &= 2\pi r\\&= 2 \times \frac{{22}}{7} \times 14\\&= 2 \times 22 \times 2\\&= 88\;\rm{cm}\end{align}

(b) Circumference of the circle

\begin{align}&= 2\pi r\\&= 2 \times \frac{{22}}{7} \times 28\\&= 2 \times 22 \times 4\\&= 176\;\rm{mm}\end{align}

(c) Circumference of the circle

\begin{align}&= 2\pi r\\&= 2 \times \frac{{22}}{7} \times 21\\&= 2 \times 22 \times 3\\&= 132\;\rm{cm}\end{align}
