Answer:

565 cm

Explanation:

Given that:

Radius of tire (r) = 30 cm

Number of complete rotations made = 3

To start with :

Obtain the Circumference : 2πr

Hence,

Circumference = 2 * π * r

= 2 * π * 30 = 6

= 188.49555 cm²

Length of trace of water left :

188.49555 * 3

565.48667

= 565cm (nearest cm)
