A wheel with a diameter of 12 cm makes 24 revolutions at some distance. How many revolutions will a wheel

A wheel with a diameter of 12 cm makes 24 revolutions at some distance. How many revolutions will a wheel with a diameter of 16 cm make at the same distance?

To solve this problem, we first determine how many times the diameter of the second wheel is greater than the diameter of the first.
To do this, divide 16 cm by 12 cm.
We get:
16/12 = 1 4/12 = 1 1/3 times.
It follows from this that a wheel with a large diameter will make 1 1/3 times less revolutions at the same distance.
To determine the number of revolutions, we divide 24 revolutions by the found ratio.
Will be:
24/1 1/3 = 24/4/3 = 24 * 3/4 = 6 * 3 = 18 revolutions.
Answer: The second wheel will rotate 18 times.
