How many times does a tire with a diameter of 25in . 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
In order to determine how many times a tire with a diameter of 25 inches rotates when it travels a mile, we first need to calculate its circumference.
Circumference = π * diameter
Circumference = 3.14 * 25 inches
Circumference = 78.5 inches
Next, we need to calculate the number of full rotations the tire makes in one mile.
Number of full rotations = 63,360 inches (in one mile) / 78.5 inches (circumference)
Number of full rotations = 807.611
Since the number of full rotations must be a whole number, we round up to the next whole number.
Therefore, the tire with a diameter of 25 inches rotates 808 times when it travels a mile.
