1.	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.
Answer» 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 760 m daily

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.

Answer»

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 760 m daily
