Question

A street that is
155m
long is covered in snow. City workers are using a snowplow to clear the street. The snowplow has tires that are
1.5m
in diameter. How many times does a tire have to turn in traveling the length of the street?
Use the value
3.14
for
π
. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. Do not round any intermediate steps.

Answer 1

C = pi * d
C = 3.14 * 1.5
C = 4.71

155 * 4.71 = 730.05 = 730.1 times

Answer 2

ah, I think 155 / C

Answer 3
