what are you looking for? what is the actual question?

hhanan:

Which is closest to the distance around the outside edge of the wheel?

L1ly:

can you give some answer choices? perhaps take a larger screen shot

hhanan:

there are not choices

L1ly:

when you say "which is the" you need choices what type of answer are you expected to put in

L1ly:

unless there is more information on this question, such as a previously referenced question, this question is unsolveable

L1ly:

that doesn't really help. what topic is this, do you know?

hhanan:

math

Florisalreadytaken:

right, enough beating around the bush -- post a ss of the WHOLE thing.

L1ly:

ik it's math, but is it like geometric shapes, or volume or what?

L1ly:

ok, so they want the circumference: the formula is 2*pi*r

L1ly:

can you tell me what the r is from the question?

hhanan:

30

L1ly:

that's the diameter. the radius (r) is half of the diameter. what is half of 30?

hhanan:

15

L1ly:

the plug 15 as r in to the equation 2 * pi * r

L1ly:

remember, pi is 3.14 r is 15 2 is 2 lol how would you solve it and what do you get?

hhanan:

94.2

L1ly:

good job now write out the steps for your teacher

Florisalreadytaken:

after you find the circumference of the wheel, which you were not asked to finid :\, lets look at the bottom question Which is closest to the distance around the outside edge of the wheel? look at the image i attached -- what would you call that?

hhanan:

a Circle

Florisalreadytaken:

its not a random circle is it? try and specify it

L1ly:

may i know, then, @florisalreadytaken what the question is asking?

Florisalreadytaken:

i am just as confused as you are -- this makes no sense at all

L1ly:

bc i was really confused, but as i saw it, the distance of the outer edge of the wheel is the circumference. i thought the question is asking what i sclosest to the circumference

L1ly:

@hhanan , do you know what your teacher wants? it is a kind of confusing question

hhanan:

I emailed my teacher and she said that she cant tell me the answer but that is is one of these: 33mm 47mm 94mm 188mm

L1ly:

so, which one do you think your answer is closest to?

hhanan:

94

L1ly:

you got it! good luck

hhanan:

thank you

L1ly:

np i'm glad we figured it out in the end lol

email her back and tell her to learn how to create a proper question.

hhanan:
