Question

The Tire on franks bike moves 75 inches in one rotation. How many rotations will the tire have made after frank rides 50 feet

Answer 1

8 rotations.   first must convert 50 ft into inches.  50x12=600 in.  If you know the distance and the length of rotation, divide the length  (600) by the length of each rotation (75) and you get 8

Answer 2

Answer: 8

Explanation:

Given: The tire on franks bike moves in one rotation =75 inches

Since 1 feet = 12 inches

Therefore, 50 inches =
`50*12=600\text{ inches}`

Now, the number of rotations(r) the tire will have made after frank rides 50 feet is given by :-

`r=\frac{50\text{ feet}}{75\text{ inches}}=\frac{600\text{ inches}}{75\text{ inches}}=8`

Hence, the tire will have made 8 rotations after frank rides 50 feet.
