Question: 345
2. The distance around a rectangular park is 1 mile. If the width of the park is 880 feet, what is its length?
- A. 1,760 ft
- B. 1,510 ft
- C. 1,250 ft
- D. 840 ft
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
A is correct. 1 mile = 5,280 ft. If the width of the park is 880 ft, then two sides of the park measure 880 + 880 = 1,760 ft. 5,280 – 1,760 = 3,520. The other two sides of the park must each measure one-half of 3,520 ft.
3,520 ÷ 2 = 1,760 ft.
