Question

how would you determine the number of rotations a tire would complete in 10,000 miles? @anthonyym

Answer 1

You would need to find the circumference of the tire. That circumference equals 1 rotation. Makes sure 10,000 miles and the circumference of the tire have the same unit.
Then divide the distance (10,000 miles or its equivalent unit) by the circumference (same unit as the distance.)

Answer 2

i have three tire circumferences so could you help me with one and then ill try the other two on my own

Answer 3

get out the car and count lol jk

Answer 4

Sure

Answer 5

tire 1's circumference is 47.123

Answer 6

what's the unit of that? 47.123 inches?

Answer 7

yes sorry

Answer 8

We need both 10,000 miles and 47.123 inches to have the same unit.
So let's convert 10,000 miles to inches.
Let's convert it to feet first. There are 5280 feet in 1 mile. How many feet?

Answer 9

52,800,000 feet

Answer 10

i think 633,600,000 inches

Answer 11

Correct

Answer 12

So you know that one rotation is 47.123 inches. You need to know how many rotations can fit in 633,600,000 inches.

Answer 13

13445663.476

Answer 14

Yes that's correct

Answer 15

ok thank you i will try the others and then message you my answers

Answer 16

Ok. Make sure you give me the circumference of the other tires though

Answer 17

i will give the circumference. i am just going to leave this question open and post all my work when i am done with each one

Answer 18

tire 2 circumference= 50.265 inches
10,000 miles = 52,800,000 feet= 633,600,000 inches
633,600,000/50.265= 12605192.479
