A man travelled 4/5 of his journey by train 1/8 by taxi, 1/20 by Rickshaw and 3 km remaining of his journey on foot Find his total journey.
Answers
Answer:
The answer will be 120 km.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets, suppose the total distance be x.
Then according to question;
distance traveled by train = 4x/5;
distance traveled by taxi = x/8 ;
distance traveled by Rickshaw = x/20
distance traveled by foot = 3 km.
Now, after summing up these all, we'll get;
⇒ 4x/5 + x/8 + x/20 + 3 = x km;
After taking appropriate denominator;
⇒ (32x + 5x + 2x + 120) / 40 = x;
⇒ (39x + 120) / 40 = x;
⇒ 39x + 120 = 40x;
⇒ 120 = 40x -39x;
⇒ x = 120;
That's all.
Answer:
120 kms
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total journey be x
4/5x-train
1/8x-taxi
1/20x-rickshaw
Remaining-3-on foot
According to the question,
4/5x + 1/8x + 1/20x + 3 = x
3= x-(4/5x + 1/8x + 1/20x)
3= x-(39x/40).........(by taking LCM)
3= (40x-39x)/40
3= x/40
x= 3*40
x=120
