after three months ..it is 84209
do distance travelled in month of Dec is 84209-75425=8784km

Answer 2

Distance covered in the month of December is 8,784 km.

Given - Total distance, distance covered in October and November

Find - Distance covered in month of December

Solution - The distance covered between month October to December = 84,209 - 53,811

The distance covered between month October to December = 30,398 km

Distance covered in December = Distance covered between October to December - Distance covered in October and November

Distance covered in December = 30,398 - 21,614

Distance covered in December = 8,784 km

Hence, the distance covered in December is 8,784 km.
