Question

5. Each side of a square garden is 85 m. Find the distance covered by a girl going round
the garden five times​

Answer 1

$\sf \Large Solution!!$

$\sf \large Let's\:understand\:the\:question.$

The girl is walking in the square garden whose each side is 85 m. She goes around the garden five times which means that she is walking on the perimeter of the square garden. So, we can find the distance covered by her if we find the perimeter of the square garden and then multiply the perimeter with five.

$\to$ Perimeter = 4 × Side

= 4 × 85 m

Perimeter = 340 m

$\sf \large Now,$

$\to$ Distance covered by the girl = Perimeter of the square garden × 5

= 340 m × 5

$\star$ Distance covered by the girl = 1700 m
