Question

A Ferris Wheel has a radius of 16 feet. How far will you travel if you take a ride that goes around 5 times?

Round answer to the nearest hundredth and for pi use
π =22/7

Answer 1

502.86 feet

Explanation:

16 * 2 = diameter = 32

circumference = diameter * pi = 32 * 22/7 = 704 / 7

circumference * 5 = 704 / 5 * 5 = 3520 / 7 = 502.857142857

which is about: 502.86
