Question

Sunitha travelled 15 km 268 m by bus 7 km 7m by car and 500 m on foot in order to reach her school. How far is her school from her residence?

Answer 1

W.K.T 1 km = 1000 m

Distance travelled by bus = 15km 268m

= (15 + 268/1000)km

= 15.268 km

Distance travelled by car = 7 km 7m = (7 + 7/1000) km

= 7.007 km

Distance by on foot = 500 m = 500/1000 m = 0.500 km

Total distance of school from her residence is
