Solution

Step 1: Finding the distance covered by Sweety

Given that, side of square =75m

We know that,

Perimeter of square =4×side

Therefore,

Perimeter of the square =4×75=300m

Hence, distance covered by Sweety is 300m

Step 2: Finding the distance covered by Bulbul

Given that, Length of rectangle =60m

Breadth of rectangle =45m

We know that,

Perimeter of rectangle =2×(length+breadth)

Therefore,

Perimeter of the rectangle =2×(60+45)

=2×(105)=210m

Hence, distance covered by Bulbul is 210m

As 300m>210m

Therefore, Bulbul covers less distance than Sweety .
