    The large tire makes 3 rotations, and the small tire makes 11 rotations.

    We must find the circumference of each tire to know how many feet are covered when it makes one complete rotation.

    C=πd

    For the large tire, this means:

    C=3.14 (60) = 188.4

    Dividing 600/188.4, we get (to the nearest whole number) 3 rotations.

    For the small tire, we have:

    C = 3.14 (2*9) = 3.14 (18) = 56.52

    Dividing 600/56.52, we get (to the nearest whole number) 11 rotations.
