here is a circular pond and footpath runs along its boundary. A man walks around it,exactly once, keeping close to the edge. If his step is 44 cm long and he takes exacty600 steps to go around the pond, what is the radius of the pond?

Answer»

Let the radius of the pond be 'r'.Since the man takes exactly 600 steps with each step of 44 cm to go around the pond.Hence, the circumference of the pond = 44*600 = 26400 cm or 26400/100 = 264 mCircumference of the pond is 264 mCircumference of the circular pond = 2πr264 = 2*22/7*rr = (264*7)/44r = 42 mHence, the radius of the pond is 42 m.
