hca racetrack is in the form of a ring whose inner circumference is 528 m and the outer circumference is 616 m. find the width of the track
Answers
Given :-
★Inner circumference of ring = 528cm
★Outer circumference of ring = 616cm
To Find :-
★Radius of inner and outer circumference of ring
★Width of the track
Solution :-
★Let the inner and outer radii of the track be r and R metres
We know that,
Inner circumference of ring = 528cm
Formula of Circumference = 2πr
∴ 2πr = 528cm
By substituting values,
∴ The Radius of inner circumference of the ring is 84cm
Outer circumference of ring = 616cm
2πR = 616cm
By substituting values,
∴ The Radius of outer circumference of the ring is 98cm
Now,
Width of the track = Radius of outer circumference of ring - Radius of inner circumference of ring
= (R-r)
= 98cm - 84cm
= 14cm
Hence, The width of the track is 14cm

Let the inner and outer radii of the track be r meters and R meters respectively.
Then,
= 2πr = 528 m
= 2 × (22/7) × r = 528
= r = (528/ (2 × (22/7)))
= r = (528/ 2) × (7/22)
= r = (264/2) × (7/11)
= r = 132 × 0.6364
= r = 84 m
And,
= 2πR = 616 m
= 2 × (22/7) × R = 616
= R = (616/ (2 × (22/7)))
= R = (616/ 2) × (7/22)
= R = (308/2) × (7/11)
= R = 154 × 0.6364
= R = 98 m
Now,
(R – r) = (98 – 84)
☞ 14 m
Hence, The width of the track is
