Answer:

The diameter of circle is 24 cm.

Explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Circumference of circle = 75.36 cm

We have to find the diameter of the circle.

Circumference of circle =


C =2\pi r

where r is the radius of the circle.

Putting values, we get,


75.36 = 2* 3.14* r\\\\r = (75.36)/(2* 3.14)\\\\r=12

Diameter of circle =


d=2r\\d=2* 12=24\text{ cm}

Thus, the diameter of circle is 24 cm.
