Question
Sanju completes 12 rounds around a square park every day. If one side of the park is 120 m, find out in kilometres and metres the distance that Sanju covers daily.
Solution
The perimeter of a square
= 4 x length of one side
= 4 x 120
= 480 m
So, in one round the distance can be covered is 480 m; hence, in 12 rounds the distance can be covered is,
= 480 x 12 = 5760 m
= 5000 m + 760 m
∴ Sanju covers 5 km of 760 m daily.
