for a race of 500m find the no. of rounds one has to take on a circular track of radius 5m
Total distance = 500m
Radius of circular track = 5m
circumference of track = 2 x pie x r
= 2 x 22/7 x 5
= 220/7 m
no. of rounds = distance/ circumference
= 500/220/7
= 500 x 7 /220
= 50 x 7 /22
= 350 / 22
= 16 rounds ( approx )
Correct me if I am wrong but, is there a fault in the question or have I done something wrong?
i cant seem to get a whole number as the answer.
