Question

Dinesh went from place A to place B and from 12.7 km from C. Ayub went from place A to place D and from there to place C. D is 9.3 km from A and C is 11.8 km from D. Who travelles more and by how much ?

Answer 1

Distance travelled from A to B = 7.5kms
Distance travelled from B to C = 12.7kms
Total distance travelled from A to B & B to C = 20.2 kms.
Ayub
Distance travelled from A to D = 9.3 kms
Distance travelled from D to C = 11.8 kms
Total distance travelled from A to D & D to C = 21.1 kms
∴ Ayub travelled more distance than Dinesh by = 21.1 – 20.2
= 0.9 kms.
