Question

the radius of the wheel of a unicycle is 14 inches. what is the distance in inches that the unicycle travels after 10 full rotations of the wheel? use 3.14 for π. math journal draw a circle and give its radius or diameter. then find the circumference and the area of the circle. write your answers using π.

Explanation:

Step1: Find the circumference of the wheel

The formula for the circumference of a circle is $C = 2\pi r$. Given $r = 14$ inches and $\pi=3.14$, we have $C=2\times3.14\times14$.
$C = 2\times3.14\times14=87.92$ inches.

Step2: Calculate the distance after 10 rotations

The distance $d$ traveled after 10 full - rotations is $d = 10\times C$.
$d=10\times87.92 = 879.2$ inches.

Answer:

$879.2$ inches
