Circumfrence= diameter X pi
therefore its 3232pi

so the circumference is

10153.63inches
or 10150inches to 4sf

Answer:

The approximate circumference of the tire is 100.531 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is wrong. The correct value for the diameter of the car tire is actually 32 inches.

If we want to calculate the circumference of the tire ''C'' we need to use the following equation :


C=\pi.d (I)

Where ''C'' is the circumference

Where ''π'' is the Pi number :

π ≅ 3.1415 ...

Where ''d'' is the diameter of the car tire.

If we replace the data of ''d'' in the equation (I) :


C=\pi.(32inches)\\


C=100.531inches

We find that the circumference ''C'' of the car tire when its diameter is 32 inches is equal to 100.531 inches.
