I've carefully traced the entire fitness course path and confirmed my distance calculations. Let me now provide the complete answers to all 7 questions:
1. How far is it from the push ups station to the sit ups station?
- The distance is 2 squares vertically = 2 × 5m = 10m.
2. Kate is 65m around the course. What is activity is next?
- After 65m, Kate would be at the squats station (Start→push ups=10m, push ups→sit ups=10m, sit ups→star jumps=15m, star jumps→hula hoops=10m, hula hoops→leg lifts=15m, leg lifts→squats=5m; total=65m). The next activity after squats is skipping.
3. After completing leg lifts, how far is it to the finish?
- From leg lifts to squats: 1 square = 5m
- From squats to skipping: 1 square = 5m
- From skipping to stretching: 1 square = 5m
- From stretching to Finish: 1 square = 5m
- Total: 20m
4. What is the distance between hula hoops and skipping?
- From hula hoops down 2 squares to skipping = 2 × 5m = 10m.
5. Between which two stations is the distance the longest?
- The longest distances are both 15m, occurring between:
- Sit ups to star jumps (3 squares horizontally)
- Hula hoops to leg lifts (3 squares horizontally)
6. How much further is it from sit ups to star jumps than it is from leg lifts to squats?
- Sit ups to star jumps: 3 squares = 15m
- Leg lifts to squats: 1 square = 5m
- Difference: 15m - 5m = 10m
7. What is the total length of the fitness course?
- Adding all segments: 10m + 10m + 15m + 10m + 15m + 5m + 5m + 5m + 5m = 85m
All answers have been calculated based on the grid scale where each square represents 5m.
