Question 441724: Gary runs a path along the edge of a rectangular park. The park is 1,560 feet long and 750 feet wide. Gary runs the path 4 times every morning. How many miles does Gary run? (1 mile= 5,280 feet.)

The perimeter of the park is 2(1,560 + 750) = 4,620 feet.
He runs around it 4 times, so 4*4,620 = 18,480 feet, which is the same as
18,480/5,280 = 3.5 miles.
