Question

7.For tire size P225/45R17, give the following: Width(mm): _______________ Aspect Ratio (%): _______________ Height (in.): _______________ Diameter (in): _______________ Circumference (in.): _______________ *Remember that 1 inch is equal 25.4mm

Answer 1

The width is the first numbers.

Width = 225 mm

Aspect ratio is the second number.

Aspect ratio is 45

Aspect ratio is width / height.

You have the ratio and width so you can calculate the height:

Multiply the width by the ratio:

Height = 225 x 0.45 = 101.25 mm

101.25/25.4 = 3.98 inches

The rim

Diameter is the last number

Rim diameter = 17 inches

So the overall height would be approximately 17 + 3.98 + 3.98 = 24.96 inches

Round the answers as needed.
