Question

The wheel of the average bicycle is 28 inches in diameter. How many feet will be covered in 9
turns of the wheel?​

Answer 1

Answer:

• Approximately 66 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

• d = 28 in

Find the circumference:

• C = πd = 3.14*28 = 87.92 in

Find the distance covered by 9 turns:

• 9C = 9*87.92 = 791.28 in

Convert inches to feet:

• 1 foot = 12 in
• 791.28 in = 791.28/12 ft = 65.94 ft ≈ 66 ft
