How to avoid the extra newline character from being added to a string while using the fgets() in C?

Question

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int main() {
char c[10];
fgets(c, 10, stdin);
printf("%s and Jerry\n", c);
printf("%s is %d characters long", c, strlen(c));
return 0;
}
Input:
Tom

Output:
Tom
and Jerry
Tom
is 4 characters long

Expected Output:
Tom and Jerry
Tom is 3 characters long

Is there a way to obtain the expected output only by using fgets for input?
The above code would work fine on Sololearn's code playground when the 'Submit' button is hit after entering only the input. But, when the code is run on a PC you must press the 'Enter'/'Return' button for the computer to accept the input. That is where this issue arises.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thank you.

You can't avoid it, but you can replace it.
To replace '\n' with '\0', you can use strlen this way:

...
fgets(c, 10, stdin);
c[strlen(c)] = '\0'; //add this to replace '\n' with '\0'
printf(...
...
