Question

Three horses A, B, and C are tied to a pole at different corners of a grass field. If horse A is tied with a 412 m long rope, horse B is tied with a 3 m long rope, horse C is tied with a 450 cm long rope, then find which horse can graze more grass?

Solution

The horses can cover a circular area. The length of the rope will be the radius.

So longer the length of the rope, larger will be the circular grazing area for the horse.

We know, 1 m = 100 cm
Length of the rope of horse A = 412 m
= 4 m + 12 m
= 400 cm + 50 cm
= 450 cm

Length of the rope of horse B = 3 m = 300 cm

Length of the rope of horse C = 450 cm

So the horses A and C will have more grass to graze than horse B.
