The circumference of a circle is given by the formula ...

C = πd . . . . . where d represents the diameter

The circumference of the tire is the distance the truck will move when the tire makes one revolution. That distance is ...

C ≈ 3.1416×(66 in) ≈ 207.35

The truck will travel about 207 inches for each revolution of the tire.
