Question

An athlete takes 10 rounds of a rectangular park, 60 m long and 35 m wide. Find the total distance covered by him

Answer 1

1900M

Explanation:

If the athlete runs round a rectangular park, the distance covered can be determined by calculating the perimeter of the park

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 x (length + width)

2 x (60 + 35) = 190m

Since he run rounds 10 times, the total distance covered = 190m x 10 = 1900m
