If one circle has a diameter = 6 inches and the other has a diameter = 8 inches, what is the ratio of the radii? Use the rule of ratios to find the ratio of the Areas.

  3 : 4 ratio of radii

  9 : 16 ratio of areas

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of radii is the same as the ratio of diameters:

  one : the other = 6 :8 = 3 : 4

__

The ratio of areas is the square of the ratio of radii:

  one : the other = 3² : 4² = 9 : 16

The answer would be : 2b(3a + 5c + 4d) because the common factor of all these numbers would be 2 .
