Sweety runs around a square park of side 75 m. Bulbul runs around a rectangular park with length 60 m and breadth 45 m. Who covers less distance?

Given that,

Side of square park = 75 m


And,


Length of rectangular park, l = 60 m


Breadth of rectangular park, b = 45 m


Therefore,


Distance covered by Sweety = Perimeter of square park


We know that,


Perimeter of square park = 4 × Side


= 4 × 75 =300 m


Also,


Distance covered by Bulbul = Perimeter of rectangular park


We know that,


Perimeter of rectangular park = 2 × (l + b)


= 2 × (60 + 45) = 2 × 105


= 210 m


Therefore, Bulbul covers less distance as compared to Sweety.
