Question
Find the diameter of a circle whose circumference is equal to the sum of circumference of circles with radius 10 cm, 12 cm, and 18 cm.

Solution
Let the radius of the circle = R cm
∴ 2πR = 2π × 10 + 2π × 12 + 2π × 18
On dividing each term by 2π, we get:
R = 10 + 12 + 18 = 40 cm
∴ Radius of the circle obtained = 40 cm
And, its diameter = 2 × Radius
= 2 × 40 cm = 80 cm
