A wheel with a circumference of 3 inches is rotating at 5 rotations per minute. I is the distance the wheel travels in one minute

So circumference is the distance around the wheel

that is the part that is actually touching the ground

so therefor the wheele travels 3 inches per rotations

5 rotations per minute

we have to find the distance

3 times (number of roations) times 1 minute=3 times 5 times 1=15

answer is 15 in per miute

I=15
