We can't find a formula for this one. Can someone please help?

The problem:
A Ferris wheel has a circumference of 69.08 m and a radius of 11 m. If you were to get on the Ferris wheel, how far will you travel if you make one complete rotation around?

I am thinking you would travel 69.08 m - the circumference. My son disagrees.
 
You are correct. I am putting you on the very end of the ferris wheel. If you sit in a meter then it would be c=2(pi)r where r = 10.
 
I would say the circumference as well.
