The diameter of a bicycle wheel is 2 feet.About how many revolutions does the wheel make to travel 2 kilometers?Explain.Hint 1 k

RSB [31]

We can work out the circumference of the wheel by using the equation

C = πd

C = π × 2
C = <span>6.28318530718
C = 6 feet

If 1km is 3280 feet, 2km is 6560 feet

6560 </span>÷ 6 = <span>1093.33333333 (recurring)
= 1093

Therefore the bike wheels rolls (approximately) 1093 times to cover 2km.
