Moment of inertia of given disk (before cutting) (w.r.t axis passing through it's centre C and perpendicular to it's plane) or (principle axis) = (9M)R22
Mass of given disk = 9M
(Assume density and thickness are uniform every where on disk)
So mass for area π(R2) = 9M
So mass per unit area = =9MπR2
So mass for area
πR32=9MπR2×πR32
= M = mass of small disk

So moment of inertia of small disk (w.r.t. its own principle axis) = MR322

Now from parallel axis theorem

I=Icm+Md2

here d is distance between parallel axes,

So Ic=MR322+M2R32

moment of inertia of small disk wrt principle axis of bigger disk)

(here, d=2R3, given in question)

Solving this Ic=MR218+4MR29

Ic=MR22

Now moment of inertia of remaining part w.r.t. given axis

=9MR22MR22=4MR2
