One lap around the skating rink is about 500 feet and the length of 175 feet. How far will you skate if you skate: A.the length 4 times plus 10? B.the length 3 times plus 16 laps? c.the length 6 times plus 25?
First things first. It says the length is 175. Therefore: A. The length 4 times plus 10 (175 x 4) + 10 = 700 + 10 = 710 ft B. The length 3 times plus 10 laps (175 x 3) + (500 x 16) //because one lap is 500 ft and it asks you for 16 laps = 525 + 8000 = 8525 ft C. The length 6 times plus 25 (175 x 6) + 25 = 1050 + 25 = 1075 ft Hope it helps!
