880 rotations. This is because the monster truck tires have a diameter of 6ft or 72 inches, so the circumference of each tire would be 72π inches. To travel one mile (5280 feet), the tires would need to make 5280/72 or 73.33 rotations. Since the tires would need to make a whole number of rotations, the closest number of rotations would be 73 rotations multiplied by the 12 rotations needed to make a mile, which equals 880 rotations.
