Answer:
The inside diameter of pipe is [tex]1\frac{5}{8}[/tex] inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The outer diameter is 2 inches and the wall thickness is 3/16 inch.
Now, to find the inside diameter of pipe.
Outer diameter = 2 inches.
Wall thickness = 3/16 inch.
So, to get the inside diameter of the pipe we put formula:
Inside diameter = outer diameter - 2 × wall thickness
[tex]Inside\ diameter =2-2\times \frac{3}{16}[/tex]
[tex]Inside\ diameter=2-\frac{6}{16}[/tex]
[tex]Inside\ diameter=\frac{32-6}{16}[/tex]
[tex]Inside\ diameter=\frac{26}{16}[/tex]
Dividing the numerator and denominator by 2 of R.H.S :
[tex]Inside\ diameter=\frac{13}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Inside\ diameter=1\frac{5}{8}\ inches.[/tex]
Therefore, the inside diameter of pipe is [tex]1\frac{5}{8}\ inches.[/tex]
