Sangeet runs around a square park of side 80 m, five times. Ankit runs thrice around a
rectangular park of length 225 m and breadth 175 m. Who covers more distance and by how
much?

Plzz refer to the above attachment carefully.... Mark it as brainliest plzzzzzzzz.. Hope it suits you
GIVEN
Sangeet runs 5 times around a square park of Side 80m
Ankit runs 3 times around a rectangular park of Length = 225m and Breadth = 175m.
TO FIND :- The person who runs more and by how much.
SOLUTION
In both the cases the boys moves around the park which means we have to find the perimeter of both of Quadrilaterals.
CASE - 01
The Side of Square is 80m
Perimeter = 4 × Side
= 80m × 4
= 320m
Now Sangeet runs around it 5 times so the total distance he covered is
5 × 320m = 1600m
CASE - 02
The Length and Breadth are 225m and 175m respectively of the rectangle.
Perimeter = 2(Length + Breadth)
= 2( 175 + 225 )m
= 2 × 400m
= 800m
Now Ankit Covers thrice so total distance he covered is
800m × 3
= 2400m
Hence Ankit Covered More distance by
(2400 - 1600)m = 800m (ANS)
