Answer:

10.4 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find the perimeter of the rectangular field :

Length = 72m

Breadth = 58m

Perimeter = 2 ( length + breadth )

                 = 2 ( 72 + 58 )

                 = 2 ( 130 )

                 = 260m

As he is to walk 2 rounds,

The length Amar is going to walk = 260 * 2 = 520m

Time taken by Amar to walk 3000m ( 3km ) = 60 minutes ( 1 hour )

Time taken by Amar to walk 520m ( 0.52km ) = 60 * 520 / 3000

                                                                            = 31200 / 3000

                                                                            = 10.4 minutes

Therefore, the time taken by Amar to walk 2 rounds around the rectangular field is 10 minutes and 40 seconds.
