Magnetic field at the center due to the inner loop of radius $R=\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 R}$ downwards

Magnetic field at the center due to the outer loop of radius $3 R=\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{\mu_0 I}{2(3 R)}$ downwards

Magnetic field at center due to the two straight wire segments is zero.

Hence net magnetic field at center of loop $=\frac{3 \mu_0 I}{8 R}+\frac{\mu_0 I}{24 R}$ downwards $=\frac{5 \mu_0 I}{12 R}$ downwards
