A boy is cycling such that the wheel of the cycle are making 420 revolutions per minute. If the diameter of the wheel is 50 cm, find the speed of the boy.
Here we find out distance traveled by the wheel in one minute and multiply it by 60 to get speed.
Diameter = 50 cm
Circumference = Pi*(diameter)= (22/7)*50 = 1100/7 cm
Distance moved in 1 revolution = Circumference
= The distance moved in 420 revolutions = 420*(1100/7)=66000 cm = 660 m
In 1 hr, distance traveled = {(660*60)/1000} km = 39.6 km
speed = 39.6 km/hr.

There is something I don't understand about algebra: It has been around for thousands of years, yet no one has ever found out what the value of "x" or "y" really is.
