The question wants to know the distance around the rectangle or geometrically speaking, its perimeter. The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of its side, so just add up the lengths of the four sides.
side 1 + side 2 + side 3 + side 4 = perimeter
Opposite sides of a rectangle are the same length, so a short cut would be
[2 * (side 1)] + [2 * (side 2)] = perimeter (* means multiply)
[2 * 245 yards] + [2 * 420 yards] = 1330 yards

What does circumference measure?
The circumference of a circle measures the distance around the circle.
Draw a picture to solve this problem or show work please A sidewalk borders a rectangle play area The play area measures 20 feet by 14 feet The width of the sidewalk is 2 ft Find perimeter?
If there's a two foot border around a 14 x 20 foot area, that makes it 18 x 24 feet, with a perimeter of 84 feet.
What is the distance around a track that's sides equal 60?
If it's a square track then the distance is 4 x 60 = 240. If it's a regular triangular track then the distance is 3 x 60 = 180. If it's a rectangular track you have to tell us the length of the other two sides.
What if your room measures 20 ft long and 13 ft wide what is the perimeter?
If your room is rectangular, two sides will be 20 feet long and the other two will be 13. So the total length around the room is 66 ft.

distance or circumference = 15*pi = 47.124m rounded to 3 decimal places
What does a perimeter measure?
it measures everything but need to add the distance.The perimeter measures the sum of the length of the sides of a shape.
TOMMY'S large trampoline is in the shape of a pentagon Each side of the trampoline measures 7 feet What is the distance around the entire trampoline?
The entire distance around it would measure up to 6.98 foot.
A cement sidewalk will be poured around the outside of a rectangular plot that is 13m by 20 m what will be the area of the sidewalk if it is 1 meter wide?
Figure it like this: Because each side of the rectangular plot will have a one-meter wide sidewalk adjoining it, you know that the sidewalk, on each side of the plot will be two meters longer than the plot's dimensions. However, if you figured the length by adding the areas of each length of sidewalk, you would be wrong, because each length of sidewalk shares two corners with the adjacent lengths. Each corner is one square meter, and each length of sidewalk without two corners is the same as the dimension of the plot, times one meter. So essentially, you just add the plot dimensions and then add four. In other words, 2(13m * 1m) + 2(20m * 1m) + 4m2 = 26m2 + 40m2 + 4m2 = 70m2. Another way to figure it would be to figure the area which will be enclosed by the outer edge of the sidewalk (again, two meters longer than the plot on each side), and subtract the area of the plot itself, or: (15m * 22m) - (13m * 20m) = 330m2 - 260m2 = 70m2.

What is perimeter of floor 2.3m 3.4m?
Assuming the floor is rectangular the perimeter is the distance around the whole floor. So 2.3 + 3.4 + 2.3 + 3.4 = 11.4 m

Johny jogs around a small rectangular park. The park measures 165m long and 80m wide. What is the perimeter of the rectangular park?
Solution: Length =165 m and Width = 80 m The perimeter of a rectangle = 2×(length + width) Perimeter = 2×(5 + 10) m P = 2 x 15 cm Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangular park = 30 cm Hope it helps you :)
