The correct answer is:
$\frac{r^2}{\mathrm{R}}$
Magnetic field at the center, $B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{R}$
$\phi=$ Magnetic flux passing through the smaller coil $=\pi \mathrm{r}^2 \mathrm{~B}$
$$
\begin{aligned}
& \phi=\pi r^2 \times \frac{\mu_0 I}{R} \\
& M=\frac{\phi}{I}=\frac{\mu_0 \pi r^2}{R} \\
& M \propto \frac{r^2}{R}
\end{aligned}
