Transportation, Distribution, and Logistics: Tire and Wheel Assemblies

Is bigger really better? By the end of this activity, learners will be able to apply formulas for computing the diameter of tires and wheel assemblies. Begin by showing a slide presentation that will review definitions for radius and diameter, unit conversions, and decimal/percent conversions. A real-world sample problem is worked out step-by-step using the formula for diameter. Two worksheets and their answer keys are provided.
