Answer: A. 48.7 cm

Explanation:

The circumference of circle is given by :_


\text{Circumfernce}=\pi d , where d= diameter of the circle .

In the given [picture , we are given that the diameter of the circle = 15.5 cm

Then, the circumference of the circle will be :-


\text{Circumfernce}=\pi (15.5)\ cm

Substitute
\pi =3.14 , we get


\text{Circumfernce}=(3.14) (15.5)\ cm


\text{Circumfernce}=48.67\approx48.7\ cm

Hence, the approximate circumference of the circle = 48.7 cm

Thus , the correct answer is 48.7 cm .
