I need some Math Help!?

A radius of 30 centimeters means the wheel has a cirference of 2826 centimeters. This means that when the wheel turns all the around, it will have gone 2826. Since a full rotation is 2pi radians, divide 2826 by 2pi to find that each radian of rotation takes the wheel 450 centimeters. 2 meters is 2000 centimeters, so divide 2000 by 450 and get 4.44. this means the wheel will rotate 4.44 radians when it travels 2 meters.
