A rectangular park is 100 m long and 50 m wide. How many rounds are needed to cover the distance of 1.2 km?
Answers
Answer:
4 rounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Circumference of rectangular park = 2(l+b)
= 2(100+50)
= 2×150=300
(1.2km=1200m)
Number of rounds = distance/circumference
= 1200/300
= 4
Here the length and breadth of a rectangular park is given
length = 100 m
breadth = 50 m
first, we will find the perimeter of the park
perimeter = 2 ( length + breadth )
= 2 ( 100 + 50 )
= 300 m
300 m = 300 / 1000 km
= 0.3 km
So, in one round a distance of 0.3 km will be covered
So, rounds needed to cover a distance of 1.2 km= 1.2 / 0.3
= 4
Hence, 4 rounds will be needed to cover a distance of 1.2 km
