Question

A race car travels 765 km around a circular sprint track of radius 1.263 km. How many times did it go around the track?

Answer 1

Answer:

It will go 96 times around the track.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by the race car, d = 765 km

Radius of the circular sprint track, r = 1.263 km

Let n times did it go around the track. It is given by :

$n=\dfrac{d}{C}$

C is the circumference of the circular path, $C=2\pi r$

$n=\dfrac{d}{2\pi r}$

$n=\dfrac{765}{2\pi \times 1.263}$

$n=96.4$

Approximately, n = 96

So, it will go 96 times around the track. Hence, this is the required solution.
