Question

Tom travelled 2.07 km by foot 12.1 km by bus and the rest by scooter. if he travelled a total distance of 29.05km find the distance he covered by scooter

Answer 1

Given:

Tom travelled 2.07 km by foot 12.1 km by bus and the rest by scooter.

If he travelled a total distance of 29.05km

To find:

The distance he covered by scooter

Solution:

The distance travelled by foot = 2.07 km

The distance travelled by bus = 12.1 km

Let's assume "x" km represents the distance travelled by scooter

Total distance travelled by Tom = 29.05 km

Therefore, we get

[Distance by foot] + [Distance by bus] + [Distance by scooter] = 29.05 km

$2.07 + 12.1 + x = 29.05$

$\implies 14.17 + x = 29.05$

$\implies x = 29.05 - 14.17$

$\implies \bold { x = 14.88 \:km}$

Thus, the distance Tom covered by scooter is 14.88 km.
