You are going on a field trip in a school bus. A special detector placed on one of the bus's tires counts the number of rotations completed by the tire during the journey. The tire's diameter is 1 meter, and it made 8000 rotations during the trip.How far did the bus travel?Round your answer to the nearest meter.□ meters
Q. You are going on a field trip in a school bus. A special detector placed on one of the bus's tires counts the number of rotations completed by the tire during the journey. The tire's diameter is 1 meter, and it made 8000 rotations during the trip.How far did the bus travel?Round your answer to the nearest meter.□ meters
Calculate Circumference: Calculate the circumference of the tire using the formula C=πd, where d is the diameter.C=π×1 meterC=3.14 meters (using π≈3.14 for simplicity)
Find Total Distance: Multiply the circumference by the number of rotations to find the total distance traveled.Distance = Circumference × Number of RotationsDistance = 3.14 meters ×8000Distance = 25120 meters
Round to Nearest Meter: Round the answer to the nearest meter.The bus traveled approximately 25120 meters, which is already a whole number, so no rounding is necessary.
