Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this question, we must first calculate the perimeter of the park.
The park is in form of a rectangle.
Perimeter of the rectangle = (Length + Width)2
This equals to: (1500 + 750)2
= 2250 × 2 = 4500 m
The perimeter of the park is 4500 meters.
The Cyclist takes four rounds.
Four rounds is equivalent to; 4500 × 4 = 18000 meters
So, the cyclist covers a distance of 18000 meters.
Since the speed is given in km/h, we convert this distance to kilometers.
1km = 1000m
so we have: 18000/1000 = 18 km
Given speed and distance, the formula for getting time is:
Time = Distance/Speed
= 18/4.5 = 4 hours.
