If block has length 100 yards and breadth 76 yards then we have to drive 5 times to drive one mile.

Given The length of block is 100 yards, the breadth of block is 76 yards.

We have to find number of times we need to drive one mile.

The perimeter of a rectangle= 2(length +breadth)

length is 100 yards

Breadth is 76 yards

perimeter=2(100+76)

=2*176

=352 yards.

We know that 1 mile is equal to 1760 yards.

We have to find number of times to drive 1 mile=1760/352

=5 times.

Hence we have to drive 5 times around the block which have length 100 yards and breadth 76 yards.
