Question
 
Two gears are adjusted so that the smaller gear drives the larger​ one, as shown in the figure. If the smaller gear rotates through an angle of
270​º,
through how many degrees will the larger gear​ rotate?
 
Small gear 3.5 cm Large gear 6.9 cm 
 
270 degrees is 3pi/2 
 
3.5(3pi/2)  = 16.493361....   My question is how do I convert the exact answer in radians on my graphing calculator ( I have the TI-84 plus)   
the answer I know is 21pi/4 but I don't know how to get that answer. 
 
What do I need to do to convert the decimal of the exact number of 16.493361... to 21pi/4 ??  Thank you so much for helping me.
