The correct answer is A.


Step - by - step answer:

Mario will travel a distance equal to 1 circumference of the wheel for each complete revolution of the wheel.

Circumference of Mario's wheel, C = πD, where D is the diameter of the circle.

Hence, C = 26π inches

Speed = Distance / Time

Distance for 200 revolutions in ft = 26π x 200 x 1/12

Time in sec = 60

So, speed =  (26π x 200)/(12 x 60)

= 65π/9

=22.69 is the average speed.
