andy walked around the perimeter of the park four times .the park is 500 feet by 750 feet what is the total distance he walked?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, so first we need to find the PERIMETER of the park. The park is in the shape of a RECTANGLE. 500 feet by 750 feet. A rectangle as FOUR sides. And we need to add all four sides together. Here's the park: |dw:1361901504469:dw| Can you find the perimeter?

2500ft

?

Okay, so the PERIMETER is 2500, you right. Now, the problem tells us that Andy walked around the perimeter FOUR TIMES.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If Andy were to walk around the park ONE TIME, he would walk 2,500 feet in all. How many feet would he walk, in all, if he walked around the park FOUR TIMES?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
