Question

Leslie measures around his bike wheel. Then he measures its diameter. He divides the circumference by the diameter. What was the quotient?

Answer 1

`\pi`

Explanation:

Circumference of the wheel
`=2\pi r`

Diameter of the wheel =d

If Leslie divides the circumference by the diameter of the wheel, we obtain the quoteint:

`(2\pi r)/(d)`

Recall however that: Diameter=2 X Radius

Therefore, our quotient becomes:

`(2\pi r)/(2r) =\pi`

The value of our quotient is
`\pi`
