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 the tire can be calculated using the formula C = πd, where d is the diameter of the tire.
C = π(25) = 25π inches
Now, divide the total inches in a mile by the circumference of the tire to find the number of full rotations:
63,360 / (25π) = 63,360 / (25*3.14159) ≈ 804.25 rotations
Rounding up to the next whole number, the tire would rotate approximately 805 times when traveling a mile.
