Answer 2

Given: Journey covered by car = $\frac{2}{5}$ of total journey

            Journey covered by bus = $\frac{1}{3}$ of total journey

            Journey covered by train = 33 km

To find: Ram's total journey

Let: Total journey be $x$ km

Solution: According to the given question and assumption made:

$\frac{2}{5} x + \frac{1}{3} x + 33 = x$

Taking L.C.M. to solve the equation

⇒ $\frac{6x + 5x + 495}{15} = x$

⇒ $11x + 495 = 15x$

⇒ $15x - 11x = 495$

⇒ $4x = 495$

⇒ $x = \frac{495}{4} = 123.75 (124 approx.)$

Hence, Ram's total journey is 124 km.
