Question

A field hockey tournament is to be held in Yellowknife, NWT. According to regulations, the field is 25 yds by 100 yds. For officials, support groups and team members, a uniform rectangular strip of manicured lawn is to be installed by a local business group. If the area of the manicured lawn is twice the surface area of the playing field, how wide will this strip be to the nearest tenth of a metre?

Answer 1

Use the formula to find the area of a rectangle. The formula is:

Area=Length X Width 

 

So the area of the field is A=100 X 25

A=2,500

 

Use this information to find your answer.
