You can put this solution on YOUR website!
n=number of blades; r=length of blade(radius of path)
The distance between blades tips along path of rotation=%282%28pi%29r%29%2Fn
The angular distance between blades in radians=2%28pi%29%2Fn
The angular distance between blades in degrees is 360degrees%2Fn
