If we know the diameter is 20inches we can find the circumference by multiplying 20 by pi, which is approximately 62.83 inches. This means that after one rotation the bike will travel 62.83 inches. To find the distance traveled we just multiply the circumference by 37 , which gives us about a total distance traveled of about 2324.78 inches
