Question

A rectangular park is 104 m long and 56 m wide.Ranjit walks around it at the rate of 4 km/hr.What time will he take in making 6 rounds of the park?

Answer 1

Given:

Dimensions of the rectangular park= 104 m and 56 m

Speed of Ranjit= 4 km/hr

To find:

What time will he take in making 6 rounds of the park?

Solution:

The perimeter of park = 2(104 + 56) = 2*160 = 320 m

Ranjit will cover distance equal to perimeter fo complete one round of the park.

To complete 6 rounds, distance covered = 6*320 m = 1920 m

Time taken = distance/ speed

= 1920/ 4 = 480 hours

Therefore Ranjit will take 480 hours to complete 6 rounds of the park.
