Question:

A wheel has diameter 42 cm; then how far does the wheel go (in meters) in 12 revolutions?

Options:

1584 m

21.70 m

2170 m

15.84 m

Correct Answer:

15.84 m

Explanation:

Distance covered by wheel = circumference

              = 2 \(\pi \) r or \(\pi \) d

              = \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 42 = 132

Total distance = circumference × 12 = 132 × 12 = 1584 = 15.84 m
