Another 3rd grade question:
The rec center soccer field measures 35 yards by 65 yards. Chris dribbles the ball around the perimeter of the field 4 times what is the the total amount of yards that Chris dribbles the ball?
To find the perimeter you would need to add 35+35+65+65=200. If the perimeter is 200, and he circles around it 4 times, 200*4=800, which is the answer. Answer: The total amount of yards that Chris dribbles the ball is 800 yards.
