SOLUTION :

Given, length of rectangular field (l) = 250 m  and width of rectangular field (b) = 150 m

Perimeter of the field = 2(l+b) = 2(250 + 150)m = 2 × 400 m = 800 m  ∴  Distance covered in one round = Perimeter = 800 m  ∴  Distance covered in three rounds = 3  × 800 m = 2400 mNow, number of rounds to cover 4 km, i
e
 4000 m =4000800 = 5           [ ∴  1 km= 1000 m]  Hence, she should run 5 times around the field to cover the distance of 4 km

Length of a rectangular field is 250m and width is 150m . Anuradha runs around this field 3 times . How far did she run ? How many times should she run around the field to cover a distance of 4km?
