Kayla and Theo got on the Ferris wheel shown. About how high will they be at the top of the Ferris wheel?


Use the circumference formula to find the diameter of the Ferris wheel.


Kayla and Theo will be about 70 feet above the ground when at the top of the Ferris wheel.

C = πd, so d = C/π.
If the wheel’s circumference is 220 ft, d = 220/π ≈ 70.03 ft.

The top of the wheel is one diameter above the ground, so Kayla and Theo will be about 70 feet above the ground.
