Question

A cross-country relay race was arranged between the two towns of Usmanpur and Rampur. Each participant ran 750m with a flag and handed over the flag to the next runner. If 62 participants ran this distance from the starting point to the finishing point, what is the total distance travelled by them? Give the answer in kilometres​

Answer 1

46.5 km

Explanation:

We are told that each participant ran a total of 750 m.

Also that there were 62 participants.. Thus, total distance travelled by all participants= 750 × 62 = 46500 m

Converting to km gives; 46500/1000 = 46.5 km
