Mohit makes 8 full rounds of a rectangular field with length - 120 m and breadth = 75 m.
John makes 10 full rounds of a square field with each side 100 m. Find who covers larger
distance and by how much ?
The length of a rectangle is twice of its breadth. If its perimeter is 60
run during this period,
15 complete rounds in

Answer:
Perimeter of the rectangular field = (120 + 120) + (75 + 75)
= 240 + 150
= 390 meters
390 X 8 = 3120 meters. This means that Mohit covers a distance of 3120 meters.
Now, let's find John's distance covered.
Perimeter of the square = 100 X 4
= 400 meters
400 X 10 = 4000 meters. This means that John covers a distance of 4000 meters.
4000 - 3120 = 880 meters
Therefore, John covers a larger distance and by 880 meters.
Now, let's do your second question : The length of a rectangle is twice of its breadth. If its perimeter is 60 run during this period, 15 complete rounds in -
Let's take the breadth of the rectangle as 'x'.
Length of the rectangle = 2x
Perimeter of the rectangle = (2x + 2x) + (x + x)
= 4x + 2x
= 6x
As we already know that the perimeter of the rectangle is 60 meters, then the value of 'x' will be :
60 ÷ 6 = 10 meters
Therefore, the breadth of the rectangle is 10 meters, and the length of the rectangle is 10 X 2 = 20 meters.
1 round = 60 meters
15 rounds = 60 X 15
= 900 meters
Therefore, 15 rounds will be completed in 900 meters.
