Correct Answer: 18750
Solution : Here, 16.5 km/hr = $\frac{16500}{60}$ m/min = 275 m/min So, the total distance of the journey is = (275 × 45) = 12375 metres = 1237500 cm Here, the diameter of a wheel on a bicycle is 21 cm. ⇒ the radius is = $\frac{21}{2}$ cm ⇒ the circumference of the wheel = $(2 × \frac{22}{7}×\frac{21}{2})$ cm = 66 cm $\therefore$ During the journey, the wheel will make ($\frac{1237500}{66}$) = 18750 revolutions Hence, the correct answer is 18750.
