Answer:
Total distance traveled by Aryan = 45 km
Given that 3/8 distance was still left.
Let the total journey is 1
Now, 1 - 3/8 = (8 - 3)/8 = 5/8
Now, 5/8 = 45 km
So, the complete journey = 45 * 8/5 = (45 * 8)/5 = 9 * 8 = 72 km

Answer:
Given
- After travelling a distance of 45 kilometre Aryan found that 3/8 distance of his journey was still left
To find
- what was the length of his whole journey
Solution
- Let the total distance be x km
- After travelling 45 km, 3/8 of total journey is still left
- Hence x - 45 = 3/8 × X
- 8x - 45 × 8 = 3x
- 8x - 3x = 45 × 8
- 5x = 45 × 8
- X = 45 × 8 / 5
- X = 9 × 8
- x = 72 km
Thus total distance of journey = 72 km
