A swimming pool is 23.5m long. If a boy swims 4 lengths how far is that altogether?
Area = L X B
Area = 94 cm square.
Is this is correct.
who cares what the area of the pool is?
One length is 23.5 m
he swims 4 lengths.
So, ...
especially if the dimensions are in meters, why give the area in cm^2 ?
You have given the perimeter of a square pool 23.5 cm on a side, yet expressed as an area.
Serious review is in order, I'd say.
To find out how far the boy swims in total, we need to multiply the length of the pool by the number of lengths he swims.
In this case, the swimming pool is 23.5 meters long, and the boy swims 4 lengths.
To calculate the distance the boy swims, you can multiply the length of the pool (23.5 meters) by the number of lengths he swims (4).
So, 23.5 meters x 4 lengths = 94 meters
Therefore, the boy swims a total distance of 94 meters.
Regarding the second question about the area, you mentioned "Area = 94 cm square." However, you haven't mentioned the dimensions (length and width) of the object or shape for which you are calculating the area. In general, to calculate the area, you need to multiply the length by the width, so please provide more details to determine if the calculation for the area is correct.
