  1. 32 π cm2/सेमी2

  2. 64 π cm2/सेमी2

  3. 36 π cm2/सेमी2

  4. 48 π cm2/सेमी2

B Correct answer
Explanation

Area ratio 9:16 means radius² ratio is 9:16, so radius ratio is 3:4. Let radii be 3r and 4r. Difference in diameters = 2(4r-3r) = 2r = 4cm, so r = 2cm. Outer radius = 4r = 8cm. Area = π(8)² = 64π cm².
