Answer:

1cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Kindly refer to the attached image for clarity

Given data

Let the big circle have a radius R= 3.5cm

and the small circle have a radius r= 2.5cm

From the image, we can see that the distance between the two centers is the difference of the radii

Distance= R-r

Distance= 3.5-2.5= 1cm

Hence the distance is 1cm
