Answer

(1) Given:

Distance from home to park = 0.42 km

Length of track = 0.37 km

8 rounds of the track = 8 x 0.37 = 2.96 km

Total distance = Distance from home to park + 8 rounds of the track

Substituting the values in above, we get:

Total distance = 0.42 + 2.96 = 3.38 km

Hence, option 2 is the correct option.

(2) Number of rounds = ?

Distance = 4.44 km

Track length = 0.37 km

Number of rounds = Total distance ÷ Track length

Substituting the values in above, we get:

Number of rounds = 4.44 km ÷ 0.37 km = 12

Hence, option 4 is the correct option.

(3) Given:

Distance from home to park = 0.42 km

Length of track = 0.37 km

10 rounds of the track = 10 x 0.37 = 3.70 km

Total distance = Distance from home to park + 10 rounds of the track

Substituting the values in above, we get:

Total distance = 0.42 + 3.70 = 4.12 km

Hence, option 2 is the correct option.

(4) Given:

Distance to park = 0.42 km

Length of track = 0.37 km

8 rounds of track = 8 x 0.37 = 2.96 km

Distance back home = 0.42 km

Total distance = Distance to park + 8 rounds of track + Distance back home

Substituting the values in above, we get:

Total distance = 0.42 km + 2.96 km + 0.42 km = 3.8 km

Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
