Wayne's class is building a wagon to be used as a float for the upcoming Pioneers Day Parade. The outsides of the four wagon whe
els are going to be covered in brown felt so they can draw pictures on them. Rubber stripping will go around the wheel to help give it a smoother ride during the parade. If each wheel has about 94.2 inches of rubber around it, the diameter of each wheel is ___
inches.
Given this diameter, they need ___
square inches of felt to cover each wheel.
If they can buy a rectangular piece of felt that has a width equal to the diameter of the wheel, the rectangular piece of felt would need to have a length of at least ___
inches in order for each of the four wheel covers to be a solid piece. Though to account for any cutting errors, it should probably be a little longer.
