Question 764418: The blade of a typical table saw rotates at 3550 revolutions per a min. Calculate the linear velocity in miles per hour of one of the teeth at the edge of the 16in diameter blade. The velocity is ________ miles per hour.
I keep getting the wrong answer.
pi(16) = 50.2655
(3550)50.2655= 178,442.4627
I'm just not doing it right.
