Question 245878
Hello, 
First, let's establish the formula for the circumference of a circle. Its:
C=pi times diameter Now we can plug in the numbers:
C=3.14*66 Do the calculations
C=207.24 cm for one rotation of the tire. 
Now we need to figure how many centimeters are in 1 Kilometer. There are 1000 meters in a kilometer and 100 centimeters in a meter so we multiply 1000*100 will give us:
100,000 centimeters So we divide 207.24 into that to give us:
482.53 times to rotate. Round this off and we get the answer of:
480 times. 
Did this make sense to you?
