The diameter of a tire is 2.5 ft. Use this measurement to answer parts a and b. Show all work to receive full credit.

I need help with part B
About how many times will the tire have to rotate to travel 1 mile? (1 mile = 5,280 ft)

28 answers

C = pi * d
C = 3.14 * 2.5
C = ??? feet

Divide 5,280 by the circumference.
Circumference = pi * d = 3.14 * 2.5 = 7.85 ft.
1 mile = 5,280 ft.
5,280ft * 1rev/7.85ft =
be more clear pls thank you
i got 672.611465, because 5280 divided by 7.85 = 672.611465. i got 7.85 by doing C= pi x 2.5. And since the mile/per feet was 5,280 feet. I divided that by the circumference. IDK if this is correct so please correct me if i'm wrong.
ty! i dont know if this is right but im just going to trust you "trustmeplease"
Ok, I'm confused. Like really confused, this makes no sense. 😭
-_- what?
lol so wut the answer???
Because many people are having trouble let me try to break it down!

To find the circumference you use the formula C = d x pi (pi being 3.14)

The next problem might sound tricky, but trust me it's very simple, All you do is divide 5,280 by the circumference, now if you get a big number, which you will, then you just round (you just found the circumference all you do in plug it in)
I hope this helps in some way!!

(not giving answer because you are here to learn to to cheat <3)
bick stop godwhaaaa jk hahah
please don't kill me I have family
wait what the...
Bro, you saying it's really sad, what's really sad is how we didn't ask.😔

Smart person thank you i was really looking for how to solve it on my own
👍😁
oml i cheated on everything im going to fail
we are 'using our resources'
2.5*3.14 = 7.85
5,280 ÷ 7.85 = 672.611464968
