Question

Monika jogs around a square park of side of its 250m. Latika jogs around a
rectangular parkof length 80m and breadth 65m. Who covers a greater distance
and by how much?​

Answer 1

Given -

Monika jogs around a square park of the side of its 250m. Latika jogs around a rectangular park of length 80m and breadth 65m.

To find -

• Who covers a greater distance and by how much?

Solution -

Monika jogs around a square park of the side of its 250m.

• Length of square park = 250 m

According to the formula of the perimeter of the square

→ 4 × side

→ 4 × 250

→ 1000m

Now,

Latika jogs around a rectangular park of length 80m and breadth 65m.

• Length of rectangular park = 80m
• Breadth of rectangular park = 65m

According to the formula of the perimeter of a rectangle

→ 2(l + b)

→ 2(80 + 65)

→ 2 × 145

→ 290m

•°• Monika will cover a greater distance and she will travel 710m more from Latika

Answer 2

Answer:

Given :-

• Monika jogs around a square park of its 250 m. Latika jogs around a rectangular park of length 80 m and breadth 65 m.

To Find :-

• How much distance covered and how much.

Formula Used :-

✪ Perimeter of a square = 4 × side ✪

★ Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + B) ★

where,

• L = Length
• B = Breadth

Solution :-

First, we have to find the perimeter of a square by Monika,

Given :

• Side = 250 m

According to the question by using the formula we get,

⇒ Perimeter of a square = 4 × side

⇒ Perimeter of a square = 4 × 250 m

➠ Perimeter of a square = 1000 m

Hence, the perimeter of a square is 1000 m .

Now, we have to find the perimeter of a rectangle by Latika,

Given :

• Length = 80 m
• Breadth = 65 m

According to the question by using the formula we get,

↦ Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + B)

↦ Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(80 + 65)

↦ Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(145)

↦ Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 × 145

➦ Perimeter of a rectangle = 290 m

Now, we have to find the difference between the distance between the Monika and Latika,

⇒ 1000 - 290

➤ 710 m

∴ Monika is covered greater distance from Latika and she travels 710 m.
