Answer:

176mm

Explanation:

Given

Diameter of the pencil = 7mm

First, we need to find the length of one roll of paper

Circumference of one roll = πd

Circumference of one roll = 22/7 *7

Circumference of one roll = 22mm

Since a student winds a strip of paper eight times around a cylindrical pencil, then the length of the paper = 8 * 22 = 176mm
