Answer:

104/4 pi

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: The circumference of a circle is:

Radius = r, Diameter = d, C = Circumference

C=2πr (as 2r=d)

C=πd

-------------

If the radius of the circle is 26" then its diameter must be 52".

This means that the bicycle wheel has a circumference of 52π".

I'm going to divide 52π" into 360 parts (because a circle is made up of 360 degrees). I'll then multiply this value by 80 to give you an answer.
