Question

Before soccer practice,Jovan warms up by jogging around a soccer field that is 100 yards by 130 yards.How many yards dose he jog if he goes around the field four times?

Answer 1

Answer:

$1,840\ yd$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find out the perimeter of a rectangular soccer field

The perimeter of a rectangle is equal to

$P=2(L+W)$

we have

$L=130\ yd\\W=100\ yd$

substitute the values

$P=2(130+100)$

$P=460\ yd$

step 2

we know that

Jovan goes around the field four times

so

To find out the number of yards that he runs, multiply the perimeter by four.

$460(4)=1,840\ yd$
