Answer:

[tex]600 \pi \:feet[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The Ferris wheel has a diameter of 100 feet.

To calculate the distance traveled by brad, we need to first determine the circumference of the Ferris wheel.

Circumference of a Circle of Diameter, d =[tex]\pi d[/tex]

Circumference of the Ferris wheel =[tex]100\pi \:feet[/tex]

Therefore, distance traveled in 1 revolution =[tex]100\pi \:feet[/tex]

Distance traveled by Brad in 6 Revolutions= [tex]6 X 100 \pi=600 \pi \:feet[/tex]

The approximate distance traveled by Brad is [tex]600 \pi \:feet[/tex]
