Open in App
Solution

Length of the rectangular park =50 m
Breadth of the rectangular park =25 m
Total distance covered by the athlete in one round will be the perimeter of the park.
Now, perimeter of the rectangular park
=2×(length+breadth)=2×(50 m+25 m)
=2×75 m=150 m
So, the distance covered by the athlete in one round is 150 m.
Therefore, distance covered in 10 rounds =10×150 m=1500 m
The total distance covered by the athlete is 1500 m.
