Best answer

The sum of the radii of two circles is 7 cm (given)

Difference of circumferences of two circles is 8 cm (given)

Let radii of circles be x and (7-x)

Then,

2πx – 2π(7 – x) = 8

2πx – 14π + 2πx = 8

2πx = 26 …..(1)

Which is circumference of one circle.

Circumference of the another circles = 2π(7 – x) = 14π – 2πx

= 14π – 26

= 14 x 22/7 – 26

= 18

Therefore, Circumference of the circles are 26 cm and 18 cm.
