A circumference of 103 inches compared to the factory-installed tires' circumference of 93 inches, if the odometer reads 8,000 miles, you've actually traveled approximately 8,864 miles.
To find the actual distance traveled with the new tires, you can use the ratio of the circumferences of the old and new tires to adjust the odometer reading.
The old tires' circumference is 93 inches, and the new tires' circumference is 103 inches.
First, find the ratio of the new tire circumference to the old tire circumference:
Ratio = New tire circumference / Old tire circumference
Ratio = 103 inches / 93 inches
Ratio = 1.108 (approximately)
This means for every 1 unit on the old tire, the new tire travels approximately 1.108 units.
Now, adjust the odometer reading using this ratio:
Actual distance traveled = Odometer reading * Ratio
Actual distance traveled = 8,000 miles * 1.108
Actual distance traveled = 8,864.0 miles (approximately)
So, with tires having a circumference of 103 inches compared to the factory-installed tires' circumference of 93 inches, if the odometer reads 8,000 miles, you've actually traveled approximately 8,864 miles.
Question
3. If the odometer reading is 8,000 miles on your car and you have tires with a circumference of 103 inches, you have actually traveled _ miles. (Factory-installed tires circumference is 93 inches.)
