The diameter from the outer edge of the rubber of my old tires to the center of the tire is 76cm (30inches). What is the circumference of the tires?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The circumference of the tires is of 94.25 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of a circle:

The circumference of a circle, with radius measuring r, is given by:

[tex]C = 2\pi r[/tex]

In which the radius is half the diameter.

In this question:

Diameter of 30 inches, so the radius is 30/2 = 15 inches.

The circumference is:

[tex]C = 2\pi (15) = 30\pi = 94.25[/tex]

The circumference of the tires is of 94.25 inches.
