Question

six turns of a wire are wrapped around a pipe with a length of 24 inches in length and a circumference of 4 inches. What is the length of the wire?

Answer 1

Each turn of the wire covers a length equal to the circumference of the pipe. Basically, the information on the length of the pipe is not needed here. Since there are a total of 6 turns and the circumference is 4 inches, then the total length of the wire is:

Length of wire = 4*6 = 24 inches
