Answer:

  18 6/7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference is given by the formula ...

  C = 2πr

The circumference of the larger circle is then ...

  C' = 2π(r+3) = 2πr +6π

The difference in circumference is ...

  C' -C = (2πr +6π) -(2πr) = 6π

For the given value of π, the difference in circumference is ...

  (22/7)(6 ft) = 132/7 ft = 18 6/7 ft

The circumference of the outer circle is greater by 18 6/7 ft.
