Question

Soham goes jogging every morning around a rectangular park. The length and breadth of the park are 150 m and 100 m respectively. Find the distance covered by Soham in one lap around the park.

• A. 250 m
• B. 350 m
• C. 500 m
• D. 600 m

Answer 1

The correct option is C

500 m

The distance covered by Soham in one lap around the park is same as perimeter of the park. Since the park is rectangular in shape, distance covered by him = (150 + 100 + 150 + 100) m = 500 m.
