Sweety runs around a square park of side 75 m. Bulbul runs around a rectangular park with a length of 60 m and a breadth of 45 m. Who covers less distance?


Given :

Sweety runs around a square park of side 75 m.

Bulbul runs around a rectangular park with a length of 60 m and a breadth of 45 m.

To find :

We have to find who covers the less distance.

Solution :

We know that,

The perimeter of a square of side a units $= 4a$ units.

Perimeter of a rectangle of length l units and breadth b units $= 2(l+b)$ units.

Therefore,

Distance covered by Sweety$=4\times 75 m= 300 m$

Distance covered by Bulbul$=2(60+45) m=2(105) m= 210 m$.

Bulbul covers less distance in comparison to Sweety.
