Question

Monika went to a park which is $600m$long and $300m$wide. She took three complete rounds around its boundary. What distance did she cover ?

Answer 1

Step 1 - Given, the length of a park = $600m$

width of a park = $300m$

Step 2 - Since Monika is completing rounds around its boundary. So, we have to apply the perimeter of rectangle formula which is

$=2\times \left(length+breadth\right)$

Step 3 - Put the values in the formula

$$\begin{gathered} =2\times \left(600+300\right) \\ =2\times 900 \\ =1800m \end{gathered}$$

Since Monika is completing 3 rounds. So, we have to multiply the perimeter by 3.

$$\begin{gathered} =3\times 1800 \\ =5400m \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the distance covered by Monika is $5400m$.
