Question

A football field is a rectangle where the length is 100 yards. If the total perimeter is 1040 feet, what is the

width of a football field? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot.

Answer 1

Explanation:

The width is 220 feet.

100 yards = 300 feet

300 x 2 = 600

1040-600 = 440

Since you have 2 equal sides representing the width 440/2 = 220

Check it by adding all sides to get perimeter:

220+220+300+300= 1040
