Question

Paula runs around the local park. What is the perimeter of the park? 500m x 500m x 350 x 350 x 450 Give your answer in kilometres.

Answer 1

Well,,it is known that the perimeter of any shape is the sum of all its sides' lengths ..

So the perimeter of the park would be:

p=450+500+350+500+350=2150 m = 2.15 km

I hope you got the idea!

 

Answer 2

Answer:

2.15 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Paula runs around the local park.

500m x 500m x 350 x 350 x 450

All the dimensions are in meters

To find the perimeter we add the length of all the sides

500m + 500m + 350 + 350 + 450 = 2150 m

WE know  1 km = 1000 m

To convert meter to kilometer we divide by 1000

so $\frac{2150}{1000} = 2.15$

2.15 km
