Solution

The correct option is C 324 yd
Length of the park he jogs = 750 yd

Length of the park he walks = 286 yd

Distance covered more while jogging = Length of the park he jogs – Length of the park he walks

= 750 – 286

Let's subtract the numbers using vertical subtraction.

Vertical subtraction is a method of subtracting where the numbers are lined up in columns according to their place values.

Therefore, the length covered by him more while jogging than while walking is 324 yd.
