Question

The coach of Esther's soccer team always gives the team a few options for the warm-up before practice. The option for today is to run from opposite corners of the soccer field (diagonally) 6 times or from end to end of the soccer field length-wise 7 times.
Note: The standard size of a soccer field is 125m x 85m.
The first option is to run 6 diagonal runs. The second option is to run 7 field runs. Which option will give Esther the greatest distance?

P

Answer 1

The option that will give Esther the greatest distance will be option 6.

How to calculate the distance?

Based on the information given, AC will be:

= ✓(125)² + (85)2

= 151.16m

The distance covered in 6 diagonal runs will be:

= 6 × 151.16

= 906.97m

The distance covered in 7 diagonal runs will be:

= 7 × 125

= 875m

Therefore, the option that will give Esther the greatest distance will be option 6.
