Answer:
[tex]1,947\ cm[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct question is
A bicycle tire has a diameter of 62 cm. What is the distance the bicycle tire travels in 10 revolutions? Round your answer to the nearest centimeter
step 1
Find the circumference of the bicycle tire
we know that
The circumference of a circle is equal to
[tex]C=\pi D[/tex]
where
D is the diameter
we have
[tex]D=62\ cm[/tex]
substitute
[tex]C=\pi (62)[/tex]
[tex]C=62\pi\ cm[/tex]
step 2
What is the distance the bicycle tire travels in 10 revolutions?
we know that
One revolution subtends a distance equal to the circumference of the bicycle tire
so
Multiply the circumference by 10
[tex](10)62\pi=620\pi\ cm[/tex]
assume
[tex]\pi =3.14[/tex]
[tex]620(3.14)=1,947\ cm[/tex]
