Question

A car travels around a circular track of radius 1.5 miles. It traversed35of a complete revolution. Howfar did it travel?

Answer 1

Answer:

The total distance traveled by the car is 330 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The circular track is the circumference of circle with radius 1.5 miles.

Circumference of a circle = 2$\pi$r

Thus,

Circumference of the track  = 2 x $\frac{22}{7}$ x 1.5

                           = 9.4286571429

Circumference of the track = 9.4286571429 miles

But, one complete revolution by the car is the circumference of the track.

i.e One complete revolution round the track = 9.4286571429 miles

Therefore,

35 complete revolutions round the track = 35 x 9.4286571429 miles

                                       = 330 miles

The total distance traveled by the car is 330 miles.
