Answer:  74.98cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find out radius of Circle A. [We use circumference of circle A to find its radius].

Circumference of circle A = 2πr; where r is radius.  

To better viewing we change sides, we get:

                                     2πr = Circumference of circle A

                                     2πr = 25

                                         r = [tex]\frac{25}{2\pi }[/tex]

                                         r = [tex]\frac{25}{3.14}[/tex]

                                         r ≈ 3.98

Step 2: Calculate the diameter of circle A.

diameter of circle A = 2r = 2(3.98) = 7.96

Step 3: Finding diameter of circle B.

diameter of circle B = 3(diameter of circle A) = 3(7.96) = 23.88

Step 4: Converted diameter of circle B to r.

diameter of circle B = 2r

                      23.88 = 2r

divided 2 from both sides, we get:

                        11.94 = r

Step 5: Substitute radius of circle B into the circumference formula, where C = 2πr.

C = 2πr

C = 2(3.14)(11.94)

C ≈ 74.98
