Question

Sonu runs around a square park of side 80m five times. what distance does he cover? ankit runs thrice around a rectangular park of length 250m and breadth 150m. what distance does he cover? who covers more distance and by how much?

Answer 1

The problem deals with calculating perimeter.

Distance covered by Sonu= 5*Perimeter of square

                                            = 5*4*80 m

                                            = 1600 m

Distance covered by Ankit=3* Perimeter of rectangle

                                            = 3*2*(250+150) m

                                            = 2400 m

Ankit covered (2400-1600) m = 800 m more than Sonu

Answer 2

$\huge\bold\red{Answer}$

The problem deals with calculating perimeter

Distance covered by Sonu= 5 x Perimeter of square

= 5 x 4 x 80 m

= 1600 m

Distance covered by Ankit=3 x Perimeter of

rectangle

= 3 x 2 x (250+150) m

= 2400 m

Ankit covered (2400-1600) m = 800 m more than Sonu
