It moves 35/60 of a circle.

Circle is circumference 2 pi r. r=4 so that's 8pi

So, we have 8x35/60 pi = 280/60 pi = 14/3 pi, or approximately 14.66 inches

How far does the tip of the minute hand of a clock move in 35 minutes if the hand is 9 inches long?

Assuming the 9 inches is from the pivot point to the tip of the minute hand: In 1 hour = 60 minutes the tip of the minute hand sweeps out the circumference of a circle with radius 9 inches. In 35 minutes, it sweeps out a fraction on 35 minutes/1 hour of this. The circumference of a circle is given by circumference = 2 × π × radius Therefore the tip of the minute hand moves: length = 35/60 × 2 × π × 9 in → length = 21/2 π in = 10½ π in ≈ 33.0 in
