Answer: 5500cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

A revolution corresponds to circumference of the bicycle wheel.

The radius of the circle = 70/2 since two radii makes a diameter.

Therefore r = 35cm

Circumference of a circle = 2πr or πd where π = 3.142 or 22/7

We now have = 2 x 22/7 x 35

Therefore 0ne revolution = 220cm.

Therefore, the distance traveled by making 25 revolution

= 220 x 25

= 22000/4

= 5500cm.
