I am sorry but I am not good at math, this may seem like a dumb question but I don't do well with word problems? I can't figure it out, maybe I am making it too hard on myself, can someone point me to the right direction?

. The distance from Philadelphia to Sea Isle City is 100 mi. A car was driven this distance using tires with a radius of 14 in. How many revolutions of each tire occurred on the trip?

First find the circumference of the tire.

C = pi * diameter Your answer will be in inches.

Then convert 5,280 feet (1 mile) to inches.

Divide the inches in a mile by the circumference of the tire.

Multiply by 100.
