To find the error in one rotation of the tire, first calculate the distance traveled per rotation for both cases. For the first case, 33.75 inches/5 rotations = 6.75 inches per rotation. For the second case, 40.75 inches/6 rotations ≈ 6.79 inches per rotation. The error in one rotation is the difference between the two distances: 6.79 inches - 6.75 inches = 0.04 inches. Thus, the error in one rotation is approximately 0.04 inches.
