To order the circles, we find the area for each one:


\begin{gathered} \text{Circle with a radius of 27 units} \\ \text{Area}=\pi r^2 \\ =\pi*27^2 \\ =2290.22\text{ square units} \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} \text{Circle with a circumference of 87.92 units} \\ 2\pi r=87.92 \\ r=(87.92)/(2\pi) \\ r=13.99\text{ units} \\ \text{Area}=\pi*13.99^2 \\ =614.87\text{ square units} \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} \text{Circle with a diameter of 19 units.} \\ \text{Radius}=19/2=9.5\text{ units} \\ \text{Area}=\pi*9.5^2 \\ =283.53\text{ square units} \end{gathered}

Thus, the circles in order with the smallest area to the circle with the largest area are:

• 283.53 square units: Circle with a diameter of 19 units.

,

• 614.87 square units: Circle with a circumference of 87.92 units

,

• Circle with an area of 1,040.09 square units

,

• 2290.22 square units: Circle with a radius of 27 units
