This statement is wrong.

------------------------------

I have read the "solution" by "Paras kohli",

and I can say that not only the statement is wrong, but the "solution" is wrong, too.

After reading his solution, I clearly see the style and the level of its author.

I want to say that we do not need the tutors of such style and level at this forum.

Ohkay, so imagine a circle, where, P and Q are the end points of a diametre ( so it's in the middle) And if O is in the middle of P and Q(diameter) and finishes with S, that means O and S are the radius (which is just half of the diamtre) Meaning QP (diameter)=2OS(radius)
So:
Diametre= 2x radius
PQ=2OS
