andy walked around the peremeter of the park four times.the park is 500 feet by 750 feet what is the total distance he walked?
First add 500+750= 1,250.
1,250 x 4= 5,000 feet.
So he walked 5,000 feet.
2 (500 + 750) * 4 = ______ feet
Silverstream is wrong.
wait so what was the right answer
Thx
To find the total distance Andy walked around the perimeter of the park, we need to calculate the perimeter of the park and then multiply it by the number of times he walked around.
The perimeter of a rectangle can be found by adding up all four sides. In this case, the park is 500 feet by 750 feet, so the perimeter is calculated as follows:
Perimeter = 2 * (length + width)
Perimeter = 2 * (500 + 750)
Perimeter = 2 * 1250
Perimeter = 2500 feet
Since Andy walked around the park four times, we need to multiply the perimeter by four:
Total distance = Perimeter * 4
Total distance = 2500 * 4
Total distance = 10000 feet
Therefore, Andy walked a total distance of 10000 feet around the perimeter of the park.
