Two circular loops $A$ and $B$ of radii $R$ and $NR$ respectively are made from a uniform wire. The moment of inertia of $B$ about its axis is $3$ times that of $A$ about its axis. The value of $N$ is:

From a uniform wire, two circular loops are made: $(i)$ $P$ of radius $r$ and (ii) $Q$ of radius $nr$. If the moment of inertia of $Q$ about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane is $8$ times that of $P$ about a similar axis, the value of $n$ is (diameter of the wire is very much smaller than $r$ or $nr$).
