Apark is 4.6 miles long and 2.7 miles wide. a: what is the total distance around the park? b: if a racecar drove 50 times around the park, how far will it go?

A) Total distance around the park is 14.6 miles

B) The total distance drove by racer 730 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The length of park = 4.6 miles

The width of park = 2.7 miles

Let the total distance cover around park = Perimeter of park = P miles

So, Perimeter of rectangular park = 2 × Length + 2 × width

or, P = 2 × 4.6 + 2 × 2.7

I.e P = 9.2 + 5.4

Or, perimeter = 14.6 miles

A ) ∴ Total distance around the park = 14.6 miles

B ) The total distance drove by racer = 50 times around the park

  So, The total distance drove by car = 50 × Total distance around the park

∴The total distance drove by car = 50 × 14.6 = 730 miles

Hence A) Total distance around the park is 14.6 miles

          B) The total distance drove by racer 730 miles   answer                                                                              

the answer is 8/21

hope this
