Answer:

Option 2nd is correct

r = 8 units

Explanation:

As per the statement:

The formula for the circumference of a circle is C = 2r

where, r is the radius of the circle

To find the radius of the circle.

Circumference(C) = 16 units

then;


16 = 2r

Divide both sides by 2 we have;

8 = r

or

r = 8 units

Therefore, the radius of the circle is, 8 units
