Answer 1

Area to be painted = inner curved surface area + outer curved surface area
Let inner radius be $r_1$ and outer radius be $r_2$ .
Required area = Curved surface area of the hollow cylinder = $2\pi r_{1}h+2\pi r_{2}h$
$Area=2\pi h(r_1+r_2)$

$Area=2\times \frac{22}{7}\times 21(7+6)$
= $1716c{m}^2$
