Answer:

The distance that represents it is 651.9 m.

Explanation:

In order to calculate the distance that the wheel travelled we need to find the length of the circumference of the wheel. This is given by the following formula:

length = 2*pi*r = pi*d

Since the diameter of the wheel is 0.6 m we can find the length of the wheel that is:

length = 3.14*0.6 = 1.884 m

The wheel made 346 full turns, that means that the total distance is the number of turns multiplied by the length of the wheel.

distance = 346*1.884 = 651.9 m

The distance that represents it is 651.9 m.
