Answer 2

$\underline{\textbf{Hey Mate Here Is Your Answer}}$

$\underline{\textbf{Given That..}}$

$\textbf{John Lives Of 17/10kilometres}$ From School$\textbf{ Paul lives 7/5 kilometres }$We

Need To Find How Much Further From School does John than Paul..

So Now Let's Move For Solution

$\underline{\textbf{Solution...}}$

So Now To Find That Follow The Simple Steps..

$\underline{\textbf{Step - 1 ) Find Distance Of Both John And Paul From School}}$

Now According To Question ..

$\textbf{John Lives 17/10 Km Away From School }$

So We Know That

$\underline{\bold{1 km \:= \:1000 \:metres}}$

$\therefore$$\mathbf{\: 17/10\: of \:Kilometres\: = \:\frac{17}{10} \:\times\: 1000m}$

That Is Equal To

$\mathbf{\large{\frac{17}{10}\: \times \: 1000m \longrightarrow 17\: \times\: 100\: = 1700m}}$

$\therefore$$\boxed{\textbf{John Lives 1700 Metres From School}}$

Similarly

$\textbf{Paul lives 7/5 kilometres From School }$

$\therefore$ 7/5 of Kilometres is Equal To ...

$\mathbf{\large{\frac{7}{5}\: \times \: 1000m \longrightarrow 7\: \times\: 200\: = 1400m}}$

$\therefore$$\boxed{\textbf{Paul Lives 1400 Metres From School}}$

$\underline{\textbf{Step - 2 Find Their Difference }}$

From Above We Know That

$\boxed{\textbf{Paul's Distance From School = 1400m }}$

$\boxed{\textbf{John's Distance From School = 1700m }}$

$\underline{\textbf{ Distance Between Them = John's Distance - Paul's Distance}}$

That Is

$\mathbf{1700m\: - \: 1400m = 300m }$

Therefore John Lives 300m Further Away From School Than Paul

$\underline{\textbf{ Hence The Required Answer Is...}}$

$\boxed{\boxed{\mathbf{300m \:= \:0.3km}}}$

$\large{\bold{Thanks..}}$
