This is asking you how far around that specific portion of the circle did the needle travel. I'm guessing you're in geometry and you're doing circle stuff right now. This is the arc length. The formula is
[tex]l= \frac{central angle}{360} *2 \pi r[/tex]
which is a combination of the circumference of a circle and its central angle. Our situation will look like this:
[tex]l= \frac{100}{360} *2 \pi (20)[/tex]
If you leave your answer in terms of pi it would be [tex]11.1 \pi [/tex]
or if you multiply it in, then your answer will be 34.9
