Respuesta :

The answer is 5 full rotations. 72/2 = 36in
36 inches in a yard
1 rotation = 2 yards
10/2 = 5
answer = 5

Answer:

The tire need to make 5 rotations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The distance travelled in one rotation = 72 inches,

⇒ The number of rotation the car travelled for 72 inches = 1

The number of rotation the car travelled for 1 inches = [tex]\frac{1}{72}[/tex]

Also, the car travelled 10 yards,

Since, 1 yards = 36 inches,

Thus, the distance travelled by the car = 36 × 10 = 360 inches,

Hence, the number of rotation the car travelled for 360 inches

[tex]=\frac{360}{72}[/tex] = 5
