from the college, he covers 54km 860m by taxi, 5km 65m by bus and the rest of the
distance by Auto. How much distance did Donald cover by Auto?
Answers
Answer: 1.075 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Total distance covered by Donald = 61 km
The distance covered by him by taxi = 54 km 860 m
We can write this distance in km: 54 km 860 m = 54.860 km
The distance covered by him by bus = 5 km 65 m
We can write this distance in km: 5 km 65 m = 5.065 km
Now, let the distance covered by Donald by auto be = x
= Distance covered by taxi + Distance covered by bus + Distance covered by auto
=> 61 = 54.860 km + 5.065 km + x
=> x = 61 - 59.925
=> x = 1.075 km
=> x = Distance covered by Donald by auto = 1 km 75 m
Answer:
1.075km or 1075m
Step-by-step explanation:
Here,
the total distance b/w Donald's house and college is, 61km
Let us consider the total distance as A.
For reaching his house from the college,
he travels 54.860km by taxi. Consider it as B
He travels 5.065 km by bus. Consider it as C.
The rest distance was travelled using Auto rickshaw. Consider it as D.
Therefore,
Total distance travelled=Total distance travelled by taxi+total distance travelled by bus+ total distance travelled by auto rickshaw.
A=B+C+D
61=54.80+5.065+D
61=59.925+D
61-59.925=D
1.075= D
Hence, the total distance Donald travelled using rickshaw is 1.075km, i.e. 1075m
