3. PACING.

Determine the length of a line negotiated in 208 paces by a person


whose pace is 0.76 meter long.

Given:
𝑚
𝑁𝑜. 𝑜𝑓 𝑝𝑎𝑐𝑒𝑠 = 208 𝑃𝑎𝑐𝑒 𝐹𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟 = 0.76 𝑝𝑎𝑐𝑒

Required:

Length of a line, D

Illustration:

0.76 m

Solution:

𝐷𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 = 𝑁𝑜. 𝑜𝑓 𝑃𝑎𝑐𝑒𝑠 × 𝑃𝑎𝑐𝑒 𝐹𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟

𝐷𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 = 208 𝑝𝑎𝑐𝑒𝑠 × 0.76 𝑚/𝑝𝑎𝑐𝑒

𝑫𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆 = 𝟏𝟓𝟖. 𝟎𝟖 𝒎
