Kanchan runs around a square park of side 90m and Vinita runs around a rectangular park whose length is 120m and breadth is 80m. Who covers the longer distance and by how much?
Answers
Answer:
Vinita by 40 m
Step-by-step explanation:
(i) Square park:
Given side = 90 m.
∴The Perimeter of a square park = 4 * S
= 360 m.
(ii) Rectangular Park:
Given dimensions are:
Length = 120 m.
Breadth = 80 m.
∴ Perimeter of a rectangular field = 2(l + b)
= 2(120 + 80)
= 400 m.
Therefore, Vinita Covers longer distance by 40 m.
Hope it helps!
Answer:
Vinita covers a longer distance by 40 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Kanchan runs arround a park with the side 90 m hence total distance traveled by her is 90*4 = 360
whereas,
Vinita runs arround a rectangular park whose length is 120m and breadth is 80m hence total distance travelled by her is 2*(120+80) = 400
we all know that 400>360 hence Vinita covers a longer distance by 400-360 = 40m
