A park is 165 m long and 85 m wide. John goes jogging aroung it 8 times. How much distance in kilometre does he cover
Answers
Answer:
Rakesh covers the distance of 2616 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that the park is 135 m long and 83 m wide, and Rakesh walks 6 times around it.
On observing,
Distance covered in one round = Perimeter of the ground
So, 6 times the distance = 6 times of the perimeter of the ground.
Therefore, distance covered by Rakesh is 6 times of the perimeter of the ground.
Given,
Length of the park = 135 m
Breadth of the park = 83 m
============================
From the properties of rectangle, we know : -
Perimeter of rectangle = 2( length + breadth )
============================
Thus,
= > Perimeter of the park = 2( 135 m + 83 m )
= > Perimeter of the park = 2 x 218 m
= > Perimeter of the park = 436 m
= > 6 times of perimeter = 6 x 436 m
= > 6 times of perimeter = 2616 m
Therefore,
Rakesh covers the distance of 2616 m.
