Rinky runs around a square field of side 70 while Pinky runs around a rectangular field with length 90m mand breadth 60m who covers more distance and by how much
Answers
Rinky: covers perimeter of square field
=70 x 4 = 280 m
Pinky: covers perimeter of rectaangular field
=2x(90+60) = 150x2=300m
therefore pinky covers more distance than rinky by (300-280)=20m

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Side of the square field measure 75m, length of the rectangular field is 160m and the breadth is 105m.
To find: Whether Pinky or Bob ran more distance and the difference.
Answer:
Since it's given that they ran around the field, we will have to calculate the perimeter.
Perimeter of the Square field:
Formula: 4 x Side.
Substituting the value in the formula,
Perimeter = 4 x 75
Perimeter = 300 m
Therefore, Pinky ran a distance of 300 m.
Perimeter of the Rectangular field:
Formula: 2 (Length + Breadth)
Substituting the values in the formula,
Perimeter = 2(160 + 105)
Perimeter = 2 x 265
Perimeter = 530 m
Therefore, Bob ran a distance of 530 m.
∵ 530 cm > 300 m
Now in comparison, Bob ran more distance.
By how much = The difference.
530 - 300 = 230 m.
Therefore, Bob ran more distance than Pinky by 230 m.
Hope it helps!
