**Problem Description:**

During the spin cycle of your clothes washer, the tub rotates at a steady angular velocity of 31.1 rad/s. Find the angular displacement \( \Delta \theta \) of the tub during a spin of 98.9 s, expressed both in radians and in revolutions.

**Solution:**

1. **Angular Displacement in Radians:**
   \[
   \Delta \theta = \text{Angular velocity} \times \text{Time} = 31.1 \, \text{rad/s} \times 98.9 \, \text{s} 
   \]
   \[
   \Delta \theta = \boxed{3073.79} \, \text{rad}
   \]

2. **Angular Displacement in Revolutions:**
   \[
   \Delta \theta = \frac{3073.79 \, \text{rad}}{2\pi} 
   \]
   \[
   \Delta \theta = \boxed{489.35} \, \text{revolutions}
   \]

*Note: In this context, one full revolution is equal to \(2\pi\) radians.*
