if your bicycle tire has a diameter of 9 inches. how many rotations does each tire make if you travel 300 feet?
Vesnalui [34]
Step One
Calculate the number of feet traveled in 1 rotation.

Formula
C = π*d
P = 3.14
d = 9 inches = 9/12 feet = 3/4 of a foot.

C = 3.14 * 3/4 = 2.355 So that means that every time the tire turns around 1 complete turn, the distance traveled on the ground is 2.355 feet.
 
Step Two
Figure out the number of revolutions.
1 revolution = 2.355 feet
x revolutions = 300 feet.

1/x = 2.355/ 300  Cross multiply
2.355 feet * x = 1 rev * 300 feet
2.355 x = 300 rev Divide by 2.355
x = 300 / 2.355 
x = 127.39 revolutions. <<<< Answer
