To the nearest revolution, how many times will a bicycle wheel
measuring 26 inches in diameter turn if it is ridden for one mile?

Respuesta :

Answer:

776 times

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Find out how far a mile is in inches -> 1 mile = 63360 inches.
  2. Find out the circumference of the wheel (how far it will travel per revolution) C = πd = 26π = 81.68 inches.
  3. Divide the total distance by how far we go each revolution: 63360/ 81.68 = 775.71 revolutions.
  4. Therefore to the nearest revolution, the wheel turns 776 times.
