Question

Runners race around a rectangular park during the city marathon. The length of the park is 6 miles. The width of the park is 7 miles. Which is the correct unit of measurement to use when figuring out how many miles someone would run during the marathon?
A. miles
B. miles squared
C. miles cubed

Answer 1

You would actually just measure it by miles. Since you're running around the park, you would use said equation for perimeter:
 
P=2(l+w)
P=2l+2w

(This is the equation with the terms filled in) 

P=2(6+7)
P=2(13)
P=26 miles
