Answer 2

Answer:

The total distance walked by Rahul in a day is $1$ km.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Distance walked by Rahul in the morning = $\frac{2}{3}$ km

          Distance walked by Rahul in the evening = $\frac{5}{15}$ km

To find : How much distance does he walk in a day?

Solution :

• It is given that the distance walked by Rahul in the morning = $\frac{2}{3}$ km

          Distance walked by Rahul in the evening = $\frac{5}{15}$ km

• We have to find that total distance walked by Rahul in a day.
• Let, $x$ be the total distance walked by Rahul in a day.
• To find the total distance walked by Rahul in a day, we have to do addition of both the distances.

• Addition is one of the important arithmetic operation of mathematics among division, multiplication, subtraction and addition.
• With the help of addition, we can get the sum or total of the given quantities.
• According to given condition, the equation becomes,

                   $\frac{2}{3} +\frac{5}{15} =x$

• By cross multiplication, we get

                  ∴ $\frac{2*15+3*5}{3*15} =x$

                      ∴ $\frac{30+15}{45} =x$

                          ∴ $\frac{45}{45}=x$

                           ∴ $x=1$ km

• ∴ The total distance walked by Rahul in a day is $1$ km.
