If a gearwheel that has a circumference of 1 metre is rolled along a 
toothed line of 100 metres, it will rotate 100 times....right?

If the line is formed into a circle, how many times does the wheel 
rotate when traveling around it. 100 or 101?

If the line is made into a figure of 8....so the wheel runs on the 
outside of one half and the inside of the other, does it rotate 100, 
101, 102 or some other number of times when traveling right around?

How about around a chain of 8's oooooo?
