    She was wrong, she run only

    x = 3,4 miles

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The soccer field is a rectangular area 300 ft long and 150 ft wide, therefore its perimeter is

    P (sf) = 2 * 300 + 2 * 150 ⇒ P (sf) = 600 + 300

    P (sf) = 900 ft

    If during practice players must run 20 times that distance, they run

    900 ft * 20 = 18000 ft

    Now 1 ft = 0,000189 miles

    18000? = x

    x = 3,4 miles

    Then player was not right to claim she had run 5 miles
