    Resolved Rectangle Problem [resolved]

    Todd and his brother have each agreed to mow half of the front lawn, which is a 20m by 40m rectangle. The mower cuts a 1m wide strip. If Todd starts at the corner and mows around the lawn toward the centre, about how many times around does he go before he has mowed his half?

    I have been trying to figure out how to do this question for a while now.....

    ne help in here will be great

    thanks in advance
