Two circles have the same center. The radius of the larger circle is 3 units longer than the radius of the smaller circle. Find the difference in the circumfrences of the two circles. Round to the nerest hundredth.
------------------
C = 2*pi*r
C2 = 2*pi*(r+3) = 2*pi*r + 6*pi
diff = 6pi = ~18.85 units
--------------
Having the same center is not relevant.
