The horse traveled 439.6 feet after walking around the track 5 times
<u><em>Solution:</em></u>
Given that, horse walks around a circular track while its trainer stands in the center
The trainer is 14 feet from the horse at all times
Therefore, radius of circular track = 14 feet
The circumference of circle is the distance traveled by horse for 1 lap
<em><u>The circumference of circle is given as:</u></em>
Where, "r" is the radius and is a constant equal to 3.14
Thus the distance traveled by horse for one time in circular track is 87.92 feet
<em><u>About how far had the horse traveled after walking around the track 5 times? </u></em>
Multiply the circumference by 5
Thus the horse traveled 439.6 feet after walking around the track 5 times
