1. **State the problem:** Find the circumference and area of a circle with radius $7$ cm, using $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$.\n\n2. **Formulas:**\n- Circumference $C = 2\pi r$\n- Area $A = \pi r^2$\n\n3. **Calculate circumference:**\n$$C = 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 7$$\nCancel $7$ in numerator and denominator:\n$$C = 2 \times \frac{22}{\cancel{7}} \times \cancel{7} = 2 \times 22 = 44\text{ cm}$$\n\n4. **Calculate area:**\n$$A = \frac{22}{7} \times 7^2 = \frac{22}{7} \times 49$$\nCancel $7$ in denominator with one $7$ in $49$:\n$$A = 22 \times \cancel{7} = 22 \times 7 = 154\text{ cm}^2$$\n\n**Final answers:**\n- Circumference = $44$ cm\n- Area = $154$ cm$^2$
