Let the diameter of the wheel be d m.
Distance covered in one full rotation of the wheel = π d
Since the wheel turned 41 times to cover the distance of 82 m,
So we can set the equation as 41 π d = 82   m d = 82 41 π d = 2 π d = 2 3.14 = 0.6369
Since π = 3.14
Rounding the answer to the nearest tenth we get diameter of the wheel d=0.7
