When Sweety runs around a square park of 75 m and Bulbul runs around a rectangular park with length 60 m and breadth 45 m, then Bulbul covers less distance.

Bulbul covers the less distance because the perimeter of the rectangle is 210 m, which is less than the square’s 300 m.

Key idea

Distance run around a park equals the park’s perimeter:

• Square: P = 4 × side
• Rectangle: P = 2 × (length + breadth)

Sweety’s distance

Square park with side 75 m:

Psquare = 4 × 75 = 300 m

Bulbul’s distance

Rectangular park with length 60 m and breadth 45 m:

Prect = 2 × (60 + 45) = 2 × 105 = 210 m

Comparison:300 m (Sweety) vs 210 m (Bulbul), so Bulbul covers less distance by 90 m.
