Detailed Solution

The point at distance $\frac{R}{2}$ from the axis is inside the cylinder.
$B_{i} = \frac{μ_{0} I}{2 π R^{2}} r = \frac{μ_{0} I}{2 π R^{2}} \times \frac{R}{2} = \frac{μ_{0} I}{4 π R} ........ (1)$
The point at distance $2 R$ from the axis is outside the cylinder.
$B_{O} = \frac{μ_{0} I}{2 π (2 R)} = \frac{μ_{0} I}{4 π R} ......... (2)$
$\Rightarrow \frac{B_{i}}{B_{O}} = 1$
