How many rotations did each tire make on Stan's drive?

Answer 1

1500

Explanation:

Answer 2

The tire made 1500 rotations on Stan's drive.

Explanation:

Given,

Total distance traveled by Stan = 3300 m

Circumference of the tire = 2.2 m

Solution,

The circumference of the wheel is 2.2 meter , that means the tire covers 2.2 meters in one rotation.

We have to find the number of rotations of the tire made during traveling to the grocery store.

`Number\ of\ Rotations=(Total\ distance)/(Circumference\ of\ tire)`

`\therefore\ Number\ of\ Rotations=(3300)/(2.2) =1500`

Thus the tire made 1500 rotations on Stan's drive.
