why worry about the area? You are interested in the perimeter.
One lap around the field covers 4*50 = 200 meters.
Now, how many laps in 3000 meters?
A square field has a side of 50 meters.How many times must an athlete jog around this field to cover a distance of 3 kilometers?
Area = S x S = 50 × 50 =2500 meters .... I'm stuck

You figured the area. The athlete runs the perimeter = 50 * 4 = 200
Kilometer = 1000 meters.
(3*1000)/200 = ?
Kilometer = 1000 meters.
(3*1000)/200 = ?
