    150 pi inches or 471.239 inches traveled

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First, close your eyes, and think about the distance a bike travels after one rotation of the wheel.

    You will come to the realization that a full rotation of the wheel makes you travel the circumference of the wheel

    The formula for circumference is 2 (pi) (r) or (pi) (diameter)

    We are given diameter, so let's find distance traveled for one rotation

    pi (15 inches) = 15pi inches per rotation.

    There are 10 rotations, so:

    (15pi inches/rotation) (10 rotations) = 150pi inches travelled

    150 x pi = 471.239 inches traveled
