Answer:
A) Total distance around the park is 14.6 miles
B) The total distance drove by racer 730 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
The length of park = 4.6 miles
The width of park = 2.7 miles
Let the total distance cover around park = Perimeter of park = P miles
So, Perimeter of rectangular park = 2 × Length + 2 × width
or, P = 2 × 4.6 + 2 × 2.7
I.e P = 9.2 + 5.4
Or, perimeter = 14.6 miles
A ) ∴ Total distance around the park = 14.6 miles
B ) The total distance drove by racer = 50 times around the park
So, The total distance drove by car = 50 × Total distance around the park
∴The total distance drove by car = 50 × 14.6 = 730 miles
Hence A) Total distance around the park is 14.6 miles
B) The total distance drove by racer 730 miles answer
