Mateo and Yvonne are using old records for their mousetrap racers. Mateo is using LPs, which have a diameter of 30cm. His racer's wheels turn 5 times. Yvonne is using 45s, which have a diameter of 17.5cm. Her racer's wheels turn 8.5 times. Who's racer's wheels travels the farthest?
I don't know how to start the equation. Do I divide 5 by 30 and 8.5 by 17.5? Or do I multiply 5 by 30 and 8.5 by 17.5?
Please help me start the question.
