The tires on your bicycle have a diameter of 22 inches.
How many rotations does each tire make when you travel 800 feet?
Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

 

Let p = perimeter circle
Let d = diameter circle
Let n = number of rotations

 

perimeter circle:
p=dπ|d=22 in.p=22π in.

 

rotations:

n=800 feet12 in.1 feetp|1feet=12 inchesn=8001222πn=138.898859426 rotations 


Round your answer to the nearest whole number: 139 rotations
