C Correct answer
Explanation

Area of ring = π(R² - r²) where R is radius of larger circle, r is radius of smaller circle. Given π(R² - 6²) = 418, so R² - 36 = 418/π ≈ 133. Therefore R² ≈ 169 and R = 13 cm. Option A (18 cm) is incorrect. Option B (16 cm) would give area ≈ 678, not 418. Option D (10 cm) is too small.
