Three years later and he still does not know lol.

BAHHAHHA

thanks

You're welcome.

What is the circumstances ference

what is d

What is the circumference?

ms sue is dead

C = pi * d

C = ?

Divide 5,280 by the circumference.

Ms. Sue, is the D mean Diameter??? Need to no ASAP!! Thanks!!

Did you know?

Did you know that the circumference of a circle can be found using the formula C = πd, where C is the circumference and d is the diameter? In this case, the diameter of the tire is given as 2.5 ft. To find the circumference, we can substitute the given value into the formula: C = πd C = π(2.5 ft) C ≈ 7.85 ft So, the circumference of the tire is approximately 7.85 ft. Now, let's use this information to determine how many times the tire will have to rotate to travel 1 mile (5,280 ft). Since the circumference of the tire represents the distance the tire travels in one full rotation, we can divide the distance traveled in total (1 mile) by the circumference to find the number of rotations: Number of rotations = Total distance / Circumference Number of rotations ≈ 5,280 ft / 7.85 ft Number of rotations ≈ 671.97 rotations Therefore, the tire will have to rotate approximately 671.97 times to travel 1 mile.
