Answer:

1256 cm

Explanation:

First we must find the perimeter, because the perimeter is equal to 1 revolution.

The perimeter of any circle is Pi(Diameter)

3.14*20

62.8 cm is the perimeter of the bike wheel.

Because the perimeter is basically a revolution, we can multiply 62.8 by 20 to get:

1256 cm
