Circles: Question
Can you work out what the numbers in the circles stand for?
You really don't need much mathematical knowledge to answer this question.

Does the number in the circle represent how many circles of that size can be fitted onto the diameter of the outer most circle?
Nope.
how many times the circumference will fit in to that of the largest circle?
Nope again. This is harder than it seems - look for the obvious!
it's an ordering according to size.
ie. the greater the number the smaller the circle
raw_onion,
nice try, but too vague.

a bigger circle will have a bigger diameter/ radius, circumference.
so does the number then indicate how many times the diameter of the smaller must be multiplied by to equal the diameter of the origional circle, to which all the rest of the circles fit into.
example, the circle indicated by the digit 2 will have a diameter half the size of the origional circle.
