Solution

The correct option is B Jane
Distance covered by Jax = Perimeter of the park
= 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 = 200 yards

Distance covered by Jane = Perimeter of the swimming pool
= 75 + 75 + 75 + 75 = 300 yards

Distance covered by Jia = Perimeter of the block
= 60 + 60 + 60 + 60 = 240 yards

300 > 240 > 200
Hence, Jane runs the most.
