Question

a man travelled one third of a distance by bus, two-fifth by a taxiand the remaining 28 km on scooter. How much distance did he travel?

Answer 1

let the distance be x

ATQ,

1/3x + 2/5x + 28 = x
7/15x +28 = x
28 = 8x/15
so x = 15×28/8

hope this helps you out!

Answer 2

hi mate ✌️

Let's assume the distance be a.

1/3a + 2/5a + 28 = a

7/15a + 28 = a

28 = 8x/15

So x = 15 × 28/8

= 52.5

Hope it helps ❤️
