The circumference of a circle is C=2pir
So for the tire C=2pi14 or 28pi
So 10 rotation would be 10 times the circumferece
28pi*10=280pi or 879.65ft

Since there are ten full rotations, the total distance covered is 880 inches

Circumference of a circle

The formula for calculating the circumference of a circle is expressed as;

C = 2πr

where;

r is the radius = 14inches

Substitute into the formula

C = 2(22/7)14
C = 2 44
C = 88 inches

Since there are ten full rotations, the total distance covered is 880 inches
