Suppose there is a uniform circular disc of mass $M$ and radius $r$ shown in the figure. Two shaded circular regions,each of radius $r/4$,are cut out from the disc. The centers of these cut-out discs are at a distance of $3r/4$ from the center of the original disc. The moment of inertia of the remaining part about the axis $A$ (passing through the center of the disc and perpendicular to its plane) is given by $\frac{x}{256} Mr^2$.
