Question

The distance between the school and a house of a student is 1 km875 m she walks both ways find the total distance she travelled

Answer 1

The distance between school and house is 1 km 875 m.

1 km=1000m

1 km 875 m=1875 m

She walks both ways.

So she travelled 2*1875=3750 m=3.75 km

Answer 2

distance while going to school= 1875 m

distance while coming back from school= 1875 m

∴ total distance traveled= 1875+1875

                                        = 3750 m

                                        = 3 km 750 m

                                        = 3.75 km
