The wheel covered 785 feet in one complete turn

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, The first Ferris wheel was built in 1893 in Chicago

Diameter of wheel = 250 feet

<em><u>Let us find the radius of wheel</u></em>

Radius = \frac{diameter}{2}\\\\Radius = \frac{250}{2}\\\\Radius = 125

Thus radius of wheel is 125 feet

We have to find the distance covered in one complete turn

The number of feet the wheel rotated in one turn is equal to its circumference

<em><u>The circumference of circle is given as:</u></em>

C = 2 \pi r

Where, "r" is the radius and \pi is a constant equal to 3.14

<em><u>Substituting the values we get,</u></em>

C = 2 \times 3.14 \times 125\\\\C = 785

Thus the wheel covered 785 feet in one complete turn

Margaret [11]
Question:
l = 5 + w
perimeter = 22
width?

Solution:
Perimeter = 22
2(l + w)     = 22
2(5+w+w) = 22
2 (5 + 2w) = 22
     5 + 2w = 11
           2w = 6
             w = 3

The width is 3

Ahoy there, matey! Our pirate ship had 5/6 of a treasure chest full of gold.
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

1 \frac{5}{24} teasure chests of gold

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a problem of adding or subtracting fractions, you will have to do one or the other to solve.  Since the pirates already had \frac{5}{6} of a treasure chest of gold and stole another \frac{3}{8} of a treasure chest to add to their collection, we need to add these two fractions:

\frac{5}{6}+\frac{3}{8}

In order to add or subtract fractions, you need to have a common denominator.  Choosing a common denominator means looking for the lowest common multiple of the two denominators:

6: 6, 12, 18, 24

8: 8, 16, 24

\frac{5}{6}=\frac{20}{24}and\frac{3}{8}=\frac{9}{24}

Add them together:  \frac{20}{24}+\frac{9}{24}=\frac{29}{24}=1\frac{5}{24}
