Question

The diameter of a bicycle wheel is 26 inches. What is its circumference? (Round to the nearest inch.)

Answer 1

82 inches.

Explanation:

diameter = 26 inches

radius = 13 inches

circumference = 2πr

π = 22÷7 or 3.142

... 2 × 22÷7 × 13 = 81.714

(to nearest inch) = 82inches.

Answer 2

In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.

Step 01:

Data

Bicycle wheel:

diameter = 26 in

circumference = ?

Step 02:

Circumference

C = π d

C = π * (26 in) = 81.68 in

The answer is:

C = 82 in
