a) 84 meters
b) 90 meters
c) 168 meters
d) 336 meters

Answer: a
Explanation:
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Let}}\,{\text{the}}\,{\text{length}}\,{\text{of}}\,{\text{the}}\,{\text{wire}}\,{\text{be h}} \cr & {\text{Radius}} = \frac{1}{2}mm = \frac{1}{{20}}cm.\,{\text{Then}}, \cr & \frac{{22}}{7} \times \frac{1}{{20}} \times \frac{1}{{20}} \times h = 66 \cr & h = {\frac{{66 \times 20 \times 20 \times 7}}{{22}}} \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 8400\,cm \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 84\,meters \cr} $$
