Find the circumference of the tire. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
About how many times will the tire have to rotate to travel 1 mile? (1 mile = 5,280 ft)

I have the first part figured out but idk how to find the answer to b, pleeease help me!

Answer 1

rotations = 5280 / circumference

Answer 2

Thanks @R_scott, I'll try that and see how it goes :p

Answer 3

BRUH WHO HAS THE FULL ANSWER

Answer 4

Here


a. to find the circumference of the tire you need to multiply 3.14 by 2.5:
= 3.14 x 2.5
= 7.85 to round of it will be 8

b. to get the number of times the tire have to rotate to travel 1 mile:

1 mile = 5,280 ft
1 rotation is 7.85
5,280/7.85 = 672.611465
