Question

Julia jogged along the perimeter of a park. The area of the park is 12 square miles, and the width of the park is 3 miles. How many miles did she jog?

Answer 1

Use the Area and the width to find the length then use the perimeter formula to find out how many miles she jogged

Area = 12 square miles

Width = 3 miles

Area = length x width

Area/width = length

12/3 = 4 miles for the length

Perimeter = 2(width) + 2(length) = 2(3 miles) + 2(4 miles) = 6 miles + 8 miles = 14 miles

Julia jogged at total of 14 miles
