Question

Fiona is going to jog once around the block she lives on. The block is rectangular, and it is 180 yards long and 200 feet wide. How far will Fiona jog (in feet)?

Answer 1

All you have to do for this question is times 180 by two since there is two sides. after you do that you would get 360 yards. next step would be calculate how many feet are in 360 yards. there are 3 feet in one yard, so you would multiply 360 by 3 to get 1,080 feet. now you do the same steps but with the other side which is 200. times by 2 because there is 2 sides to get 400 yards. now calculate the feet 400*3=1,200. finally you would add the two numbers to see how far fiona jogged which would be 1,080 plus 1,200 to get 2,280 feet.
