#Circle A


\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto 2πr=16


\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto 2(3.14)r=16


\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto 6.28r=16


\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto r=(16)/(6.28)


\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto r=2.6units

#Circle B


\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto πr^2=25


\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto r^2=(25)/(π)


\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto r=\sqrt{(25)/(π)}


\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto r=(5)/(√(π))


\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto r=(5)/(√(3.14))


\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto r=(5)/(1.74)


\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto r=2.94units

Circle B has bigger radius
