Question

a ferris wheel has a radius of 14 feet. how far will you travel if you take a ride that goes around six times? use pi=22/7

Answer 1

To complete one round, we go along the perimieter of the ferris wheel. The ferris wheel has a path shaped in a circle. So, what we go in one round is one perimeter.

Answer 2

that is 2(pi)r
Where r is the radius of the ferris wheel.

Answer 3

Now, you've been 'round it 6 stimes, which is (6)(2)(pi)(r)
That is 12(pi)r
that is 12*(22/7)*14
which is ultimately 528ft

Answer 4

thank you.
