Question

My bicycle wheel is 16 inches in diameter. How many inches does my bike move if my wheel rotates 1 full

circle?

Answer 1

If using the exact value of pi: 50.27 in

If using 3.14 for pi: 50.24 in

Explanation:

I full circle around is the circumference of that wheel.

Circumference = 2πr

• 2π(16/2)
• 16π
• ≈50.27 (if using the exact value of pi)

If you are using 3.14 for pi, it's 50.24
