Answer 1

Tom needs 316.8 pedal turns to travel a mile

Explanation:

Given that

Toms’s red bicycle travels 50 feet for every 3 pedal turns

To Find :

How many pedal turns are needed to travel a mile =?

Solution

we know that one mile = 5280 feet

let the number of pedal turns required to travel 1 mile be X

Then

X =
`(5280)/(50) * 3`

X =
`105.6 * 3`

X= 316.8
