Question

A Ferris wheel rotates three times when it travels 235.5 feet. Find the diameter of the Ferris wheel. Use 3.14 for pi

Answer 1

Answer: The diameter is 10cm

Explanation:

First, we divide 78.5/3.14 which = 25

Now, we find the square root of 25 to find the radius, which is 5.

The radius is 5cm, which means that the diameter is 10cm.

The diameter of the Ferris wheel is 10cm.

If we recalculate the area again with the diameter given, we can see that:

AREA = 3.14r2

AREA = 3.14 x 5 squared ( radius is half diameter )

AREA = 3.14 x 25 = 78.5

Answer 2

try 3.14 x 3.14 / 235.5 and that should be your awnser.

Explanation:

the equation for diameter is d=2r which is pi times pi divided my the number. if i remeber correctly. lmk if im wrong
