Question

Deepa runs around a square of side 75 metre metre Priyanka runs around a rectangle with length 60 metre and breadth breadth 45 metre who cover the smaller distance

Answer 1

Let find firstly that how much distance has covered by deepa ,

Shape of the field = Square.

length of the side = 75m

Then , find the perimeter of the square field to find that how much distance she has covered ,

$\boxed{\bold{Perimeter\:of\:square = 4\times Side}}$

$\implies\bold{perimeter = 4\times 75m = 300m}$

$\therefore{\bold{She\:has\:covered\:300m}}$

Now , let find that how much distance has covered by priyanka ,

Shape of the field = rectangle.

Length of the rectangle = 60m

breadth of the rectangle = 45m

Then , let find the perimeter of rectangle to find that how much distance she has covered ,

$\boxed{\bold{Perimeter\:of\:rectangle = 2\times ( l + b )}}$

$\implies\bold{perimeter = 2\times ( 60m + 45m )}$

$\implies\bold{perimeter = 210m}$

$\therefore{\bold{She\:has\:covered\:210m}}$

Compare the both distance covered by them ,

Distance covered by deepa > Distance covered by priyanka

$\therefore{\bold{priyanka\:has\:covered\:smaller\:distances\:than\:deepa}}$
