Dexter rode his bike 2.8 kilometer and then walked 955 meters. How many total meters did Dexter travel to go fishing?

Answer 1

The Dexter travelled a total of 3755 meters to go fishing.

• A dexter rode 2.8 kilometers and then walked 955 meters.
• We have to find the total meters travelled by the dexter to go fishing.
• We convert 2.8 kilometers in meters.

1 kilometer = 1000 meters

2.8 kilometers = 2.8 × 1000 meters = 2800 meters.

• After riding 2800 meters on the bike he walked 955 meters.

• Total distance = 2800 + 955 = 3755 meters.

• The Dexter travelled a total of 3755 meters to go fishing.
