Garrett -One revolution is equal to the circumference of the wheel, agree?In order to find the measurement of the circumference, simply divide 125.7 ft by 16 revolutions.Finally, to find the diameter, use the formula for circumference of a circle and solve for d:C = πdHope that helps

one time =circumference=pi*D where d is the diameter 16*3.14*D=125.7 solve for D
