Answer 1

Answer:

☆ Total distance hiked by them = $\sf\blue {8 \frac{19}{20} km}$☆

Step-by-step explanation-

$</u><u>\</u><u>s</u><u>f</u><u>\</u><u>g</u><u>r</u><u>e</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u> </u><u>{</u><u>G</u><u>iven -</u><u>}</u><u>$

• Distance hiked by them in first time = $\sf\blue{ \frac{23}{4} km}$
• Distance hiked by them in second time= $\sf\blue { \frac{16}{5} km}$

$\sf\green {To \: find - }$

• How far did they hike?

$\sf\green {How \: to \: solve?}$

• As we have given total distance they hiked in first time and total distance they covered in second time. So, to find their total distance ,we'll add both distance they travelled in 1st and 2nd time.

$\sf\green {Solution -}$

Total distance = Total distance in 1st time + Total distance in 2nd time

$\sf\red {Total \: distance = ( \frac{23}{4} + \frac{16}{5} )km}$

$\sf\red {Total \: distance = \frac{179}{20} km = 8 \frac{19}{20} km}$

Hence, they hiked $\sf\blue {8 \frac{19}{20} km}$ long.
