Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we will find the area of the inner circle and then the area of the outer circle and see what the ratio is between those 2
area of a circle = [tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{2}[/tex] (where r is the radius, NOT the diameter, easy to confuse)
the radius of the inner circle is 2.5. which is half of the diameter of 5
inner circle = [tex]\pi[/tex]*(2.5)^2
inner circle = 19.6349...
outer circle = [tex]\pi[/tex]*(10^2)
outer circle = 314.1592...
the ratio is 19.6349... / 314.1592... = 0.0625
0.0625 = 6.25%
= 6% ( rounded to nearest whole number )
