Answer:

200ft

Explanation:

To find out how much distance the man covered, you need to find the perimeter of the rectangle. To find the perimeter of a rectangle, the formula is:

P = (L + H) × 2

Step 1

Plug in the values for L and H.

P = (70 + 30) × 2

Step 2

Add 70 and 30, because you need to add parentheses first.

P = (100) × 2

Step 3

Remove parentheses, and multiply 100 by 2.

P = 100 × 2

P = 200

Thus, the man walked 200 feet in distance.
