Imagine any three pipes that are connected by a line.
The length between them is the distance from one point of the wire to the other point. This length is 6r when r is the radius of the circles.
Now, this is the diameter of the whole outer figure formed.
Circumference = π d = 6πr = 50.
Now, find r.
