Answer:

Yes, 10K is 6.2 miles; a considerable distance.

Let x = total journey distance

by train + by taxi + by bus + by foot = total journey

(2/5)x + (1/3)x + (1/6)x + 10K = x

To get rid of all fractions, multiply by the LCM of the denominators (this is just like finding the Least Common Denominator). LCM = 30

12x + 10x + 5x + 300K = 30x

27x + 300K = 30x [group like terms]

300K = 3x [subtract 27x from both sides]

100K = x [divide both sides by 3]

➡Total journey of men is 100km.

\bf  {\underline {\underline{✤ ƓƖƔЄƝ}}}

  • Distance covered by train = 2/5
  • Distance covered by taxi = 1/3
  • Distance covered by bus = 1/6
  • Distance covered by foot = 10km

\bf  {\underline {\underline{✤ ƬƠ  \:  \:  ƇƛLƇƲLƛƬЄ}}}

  • Total journey travelled by men.

\bf {\underline{\underline{✤ƇƠƝƇЄƤƬ}}}

In this question, we have to calculate total journey of men. So, we will find the total journey by

Distance covered by foot = Total Distance - [ Distance travelled by train + Taxi + Bus ]

\bf  {\underline {\underline{✤ SƠԼƲƬƖƠƝ}}}

Let the total distance be x

So,

Distance covered by train = 2x/5

Distance covered by taxi = 1x/3

Distance covered by bus = 1x/6

Distance covered by foot = Total Distance - [ Distance travelled by train + Taxi + Bus ]

 \bf \implies 10 = x - ( \frac{2}{5} x +  \frac{1}{3} x +  \frac{1}{6} x)

 \bf \implies 10 = x - ( \frac{12x + 10x + 5x}{30} )

 \bf \implies 10 = x -   \cancel\frac{27}{30} x

 \bf \implies 10 = x -  \frac{9}{10} x

 \bf \implies 10 =  \frac{10x - 9x}{10}

 \bf \implies 10 =  \frac{x}{10}

 \bf \implies  \frac{x}{10}  = 10

 \bf \implies x = 10 \times 10

 \bf \implies x = 100km

Therefore, Total journey travelled by men is 100km.
