Detailed Solution

Since there is no slip at any content. As the lower and upper contants of any cylinder, we  get a displacement of 2πR for the center of mass of the cylinder with respect to the  ground, and another 2πR  for the scale with respect to the cylinder. Net displacement the  scale with respect to the ground is  2πR+2πR=4πR it is independent of no. of cylinders.
