Question

The distance between the goals on a soccer field is 52 meters. Each goal has a box that extends 5.49 meters into the field. What is the distance from the front at one end of the field to the front of the box at the other end of the field

Answer 1

to solve this problem you first have to multiply 5.49 x 2= 10.98 meters
then you subtract 10.98 from 52
52-10.98=41.02 meters

Answer 2

The required answer is 41.02 meters.

Explanation:

Each box = 5.49 meters.

So, both boxes =
`5.49*2=10.98` meters

Now the distance from the front of the box at one end of the field to the front of the box at the other end of the field is given by:

`52-10.98=41.02` meters

Therefore, the required answer is 41.02 meters.
