The diameter of an automobile tire is 30 inches how far down the road will the tire travel if it makes one full turn use 3.14 for pie and round your answer to the nearest inch

Answer 1

This problem all comes down to circumference. Making one full turn, in distance, is simply the length around the circle, or circumference.

The circumference of a circle, C, is given by: C = pi*d, where d is the diameter.

Plug in and solve:

C = pi*d

C = 3.14*30 in

C = 94 in (rounded to the nearest inch)
