Question

Mohan takes 5 rounds of a rectangular park, 70 m long and 15 m wide. Find the total distance covered by him.

• A. 750 m
• B. 1000 m
• C. 650 m
• D. 850 m

Answer 1

The correct option is D

850 m

Given, length = 70 m and breadth = 15 m.
The park is in a rectangular shape.
We know that, perimeter of a rectangle (P) = 2 (l + b)

We get, P = 2 (70 + 15) = $2\times 85$ = 170 m

Mohan makes 5 rounds of the same park, so the total distance covered by him is, $5\times 170$ = 850 m

So, the total distance covered by Mohan is 850 m.
