How many times does a tire with a diameter of 25 in. rotate when it travels a mile? **Tip: As there are 63,360 inches in each mile, 63,360 divided by circumference = number of full rotations. Round up to the next whole number.(2 points)
rotations
The circumference of a tire with a diameter of 25 inches can be calculated using the formula C = πd, where d is the diameter.
C = π(25) = 25π inches
To calculate the number of times the tire will rotate in one mile, we divide 63,360 inches by the circumference of the tire:
63,360 / (25π) ≈ 803.84
Rounding up to the next whole number, the tire will rotate approximately 804 times when it travels one mile.
