Question

a man covers one fofth of hos journey on foot two thirds by car and the remaining 4 km by taxi . find the total distance covered by the man​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the total distance of journey be x

• Man coverd

1. 1/5th of x=by foot
2. 2/3rd of x=by car
3. Remaining 4 km by taxi

Thus

4=x - (1/5x + 2/3x)

4 = x - (3x + 10x) /15

4 = x - 13x/15

4 = 2x/15

x=30km

×===========================×

Hence the total journey covered by man in 30 km
