A pond is 36m long and a duck swims 4 lengths of the pond each day for 4 weeks how far does the duck swim

Answer 1

To find out how far the duck swims in total, we can follow these steps:

1. Calculate the distance the duck swims each day:

   • The pond is 36 meters long.
   • The duck swims 4 lengths of the pond each day.
   • Distance swum each day = 4 lengths × 36 meters = 144 meters.

2. Calculate the distance swum in a week:

   • There are 7 days in a week.
   • Distance swum each week = 144 meters/day × 7 days = 1008 meters.

3. Calculate the distance swum in 4 weeks:

   • Distance swum in 4 weeks = 1008 meters/week × 4 weeks = 4032 meters.

Therefore, the duck swims a total of 4032 meters in 4 weeks.
