Answer:

51.1 ≈ r

Explanation:

"A bicycle wheel travels 321 in for each revolution"- means that 321 is the circumference of the wheel that is a circle.

C = 2· π· r

What is the radius of the wheel ​?

321 = 2· π· r, divide both sides of the equation by 2 π

(321/2·π) = r , use calculator, solve and round the answer

51.1 ≈ r
