Answer:
Jacob ran 40 yards more than Ali.
Step-by-step explanation:
Football field is in the shape of a rectangle having dimensions 120 yards × 50 yards
Since Jacob runs around the perimeter of the field from one corner to other corner, therefore, distance run by Jacob =
Distance run by Jacob = 50 + 120 = 170 yards
Ali runs through the middle of the field diagonally on a straight line.
Therefore, distance covered by Ali =
=
=
=
= 130 yards
Now difference between the distance covered by Jacob and Ali
= 170 - 130
= 40 yards
Therefore, Jacob ran 40 yards more than Ali.
