Answer 1

$\bf\navyblue{QuestioN:-}$

Sunita travelled 15 km 268 m by bus, 7 km 7 m by car, and 500 m on foot in order to reach her school. How far is her school from her residence?

$\bf\maroon{AnsweR:-}$

$\huge{\boxed{\bigstar}\green\bf\underline{Given:-}$

Distance travelled by bus = 15 km 268 m

Distance travelled by car = 7 km 7 m

Distance travelled on foot = 500 m

$\huge{\boxed{\bigstar}\green\bf\underline{To\:Find:-}$

The distance between her residence and school .

$\huge{\boxed{\bigstar}\green\bf\underline{Solution:-}$

The given measures are in two units. So first of all we need to

convert both these units into a single unit.

As we know,

$\Large{\boxed{\bf{\color{\pink{1\:km=1000\:m}}}}}$

i) By Bus

$\longrightarrow$ Distance travelled by bus = 15 km 268 m

$\longrightarrow$ We need to convert into a single unit.

That is,

$\longrightarrow\bf{1\:km=1000\:m}$

$\longrightarrow\bf{15 \:km\:268\:m = 15\times1000+268\:m}$

$\large{\boxed{\longrightarrow\bf{15,268\:metre}}}$

ii) By car

$\longrightarrow$ Distance travelled by car = 7 Km 7 m

$\longrightarrow$ Converting into metre, we get

$\longrightarrow\bf{7\:km\:7\:m=7\times1000+7\:m}$

$\large{\boxed{\bf{\longrightarrow7,007\:m}}}$

iii) On Foot

$\longrightarrow$ Distance travelled on foot = 500 m

$\longrightarrow$ It is already in metre unit. So no need to change.

          ☆_______________________☆

Final Step ;

$\longrightarrow$ Final step to find the total distance,

$\longrightarrow$ We need to find the sum of all these tree distances.

$\longrightarrow\bf{Sum\:of\:distance\:travelled\:by\:(bus),(car),(foot)}$

$\longrightarrow\bf{15,268+7,007+500=22,775}$

$\huge{\boxed{\color{\orange{\bf{\bigstar22,775\:metre\bigstar}}}}}$

Hence distance between Sunita's school and residence is 22,775 m.

All Done !!☺
