Question Analysis

The main focus is using the ratio of radii and the area of the ring to find the outer radius. We'll represent the radii using a common variable, apply the ring - area formula, and solve for the variable to get the outer radius.

Key Concept Explanation

The area of a ring is , where  is the outer radius and  is the inner radius. When radii are in a ratio, we can express them as multiples of a variable to simplify calculations.

Step - by - Step Solution

1. Let the outer radius  and the inner radius  (x > 0).

2. Substitute into the ring - area formula: .

3. Given , set up the equation
