A wheel with a diameter of 14 cm rolls along a path measuring 1056 cm. How many complete turns does the wheel make to cover this distance?

Explanation

To find the number of revolutions, first calculate the wheel's circumference: C = π × diameter = 3.14 × 14 = 43.96 cm. Then divide the total distance by the circumference: 1056 ÷ 43.96 ≈ 24.03. Since 24.03 is not an option, the diameter is likely the radius. If 14 cm is the radius, then diameter = 28 cm, circumference = 3.14 × 28 = 87.92 cm. Number of revolutions = 1056 ÷ 87.92 ≈ 12, which corresponds to option D.
