The rectangular area is 18m long and 9m wide. How many steps do you need to take to get around it if the step length is 75cm?

Bypassing a site means going around the site along the perimeter.
Let’s find the perimeter of the site. To do this, fold all the sides of the rectangle.
Since the opposite sides in the rectangle are equal, one side will be written twice:
18 + 9 + 18 + 9 = 54 (m) – plot perimeter.
To find the number of steps, you need to divide the length of the entire path by the length of the stride. Since the perimeter is in meters, and the step is in centimeters, we cannot do this until we translate them into one variable. Let’s translate the perimeter into centimeters:
54m = 5400 (cm) – plot perimeter in centimeters.
Let’s find the number of steps, for this we divide the length of the entire path by the step length:
5400/75 = 72 – steps are needed to bypass the site.
Answer: 72 steps
