Mala travelled from place A to place D and from there to place C. D is 7.5 km from A and C is 16.9 km from D. Who travelled more and by how much distance? |
Answer» Distance travelled by Anbu: From place A to place B = 8.3 km Distance from place B to place C = 15.6 km ∴ Total distance travelled by Anbu = 8.3 + 15.6 = 23.9 km Distance travlled by Mala: Distance travelled place A to D = 7.5 km Distance from place D to place C = 16.9 km Total distance travelled by mala = (7.5 + 16.9) km = 24.4 km 24.4 > 23.9 ∴ Mala travelled more distance. She travelled (24.4 – 23.9) km more i.e. she travelled 0.5 km more |
