Question

a man travel 3/8 of his journey by bus and walk the rest of the distance of he walk 2 m how much distance he travels by bus plzz give answer with full solution​

Answer 1

Answer:

6/5 m or 1 1/5m (mixed fraction)

Step-by-step explanation:

Journey covered by bus = 3/8

Journey covered by walking = 1 - 3/8 (1 is considered as total in fractions - example 1 = 1/1 = 8/8)

= 1 - 3/8

= 1/1 - 3/8 ( 1 can also be written as 1/1)

= 8/8 - 3/8 (multiplying numerator and denominator by 8)

= 5/8 (simplifying or subtracting)

So journey covered by walking is 5/8

5/8 of total journey = 2 (given - journey covered by walking = 2m)

5/8 x a = 2 ( let total journey be a)

a = 2x 8/5 (reciprocal on the other side)

a = 16/5 m

Total journey = 16/5 m

Journey covered by bus = 3/8 of total journey

= 3/8 x 16/5 = 48/40 = 6/5 m

Journey covered by bus = 6/5 m or 1 1/5 (mixed fraction 1 whole number 1/5 fraction)

I hope it helps.
