diameter of 975 feet and has a
circular walking path around
the entire park. The
maintenance worker has to
walk around the park three
times a day. How far does he
walk a day?

Answer:

Total distance covered by the maintenance worker = 9189.16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

An amusement park has a diameter = 975 feet

Radius of the park = [tex]\frac{\text{Diameter}}{2}[/tex]

r = [tex]\frac{975}{2}[/tex]

r = 487.5 feet

Since a maintenance worker walks around the park three times, that means he covers the circumference of the circle thrice.

Circumference = 2πr

C = 2π(487.5)

C = 975π feet

He covers this distance thrice,

So total distance covered by him = 3 × (975π)

= 2925π

= 9189.16 feet

Therefore, he walks 9189.16 feet per day.
