Answer 2

753.6 meters

Explanation:

Given :

Fiona races a BMX in a dirt course.

The course in circular in shape. The radius of the dirt course is 60 meters.

So the circumference of the dirt course is given by :

`$C = 2 \pi r$`

= 2 x 3.14 x 60

= 376.8 meters

So the total outer distance of the circular dirt course is 376.8 meters.

Therefore, the total distance that Fiona covers in the two laps of the race is

= 376.8 + 376.8

= 753.6 meters
