c = d *
\pi
so 26 * 3.14 = c

Answer:

the circumference of the wheel is 81.64 inches.

Explanation:

Circumference of a circle is given by:


C = \pi d

where

C is the circumference of a circl

d is the diameter of a circle.

As per the given statement:

The wheel of a bike has a diameter of 26 inches

⇒d = 26 inches.

We have to find the circumference of the wheel.


\text{circumference of the wheel} = \pi \cdot 26 inches

Use value of
\pi = 3.14

then;


\text{circumference of the wheel} = 3.14 \cdot 26 =81.64 inches.

Therefore, the circumference of the wheel is 81.64 inches.
