Homework Statement


How many complete revolutions does the CD make as it spins to a stop?

The Attempt at a Solution



I already know that the Angular displacement is 68.1 rad

The answer is [tex]\frac{68.1}{2\pi}[/tex] = 107 revolutions

however this is incorrect according to the book's answer's

P.S

Check your division.
 
it gives me 10.83,i round it up to 11 and it is still incorrect.

by the way the answer should be integer.
