Question 1127397

The length of a rectangular field is twice its bredth.A man jogged around it 5 times and covered a distance of 3 km. What is the length of the field?
<pre>Dimensions of field,  x and 2x
(THAT MEANS "BREADTH" IS x  AND LENGTH IS 2x.)

(HE RAN THE PERIMETER, FIVE TIMES; AND HE RAN 3 KILOMETERS; AND THESE ARE EQUAL.)
{{{2x+2*2x=3/5}}}--------------(USING PERIMETER FORMULA)
<s>
{{{6x=3/5}}}

{{{x=2/(6*5)}}}

{{{x=1/15}}}, {{{kilometers}}}-----------this is the breadth.

{{{Length}}}
{{{2/15}}}{{{kilometers}}}

OR
133 meters, to the nearest whole meter <============</s> 
This is <b>WRONG, WRONG, WRONG, WRONG, WRONG, WRONG, and WRONG,</b> again! 
Then again, we all have grown accustomed to answers from this person to VERY, VERY likely be just that!
Correct answer: {{{highlight_green(matrix(1,8, 1/5, "km,", or, .2, "km,", or, 200, m))}}}
