Question

Each track is a rectangle. Akshi’s track has length 70 m and breadth 40 m. Running one complete round on this track would cover 220 m, i.e., 2 × (70 + 40) m = 220 m. This is the distance covered by Akshi in one round.
Question :
Q.1. Find out the total distance Akshi has covered in 5 rounds.
Q.2. Find out the total distance Toshi has covered in 7 rounds.
Who ran a longer distance?

Answer

1. Akshi runs on a rectangular track with a length of 70 metres and a breadth of 40 metres.
∴ Perimeter of track = 2 × (length + breadth)
= 2 × (70 + 40) = 220 m
Since, the distance covered in one round = 220 m
∴ Total distance covered in 5 rounds = 5 × 220 m
= 1100 m
2. Toshi runs on a rectangular track with a length of 60 m and breadth of 30 m.
∴ Perimeter of track = 2 × (length + breadth)
= 2 × (60 + 30) = 180 m
Since, the distance covered in ope round = 180 m
∴ Total distance covered in 7 rounds = 7 × 180 m
= 1260 m
So, Toshi ran a longer distance.
