Question
Anbu and Mala travelled from A to C in two different routes. Anbu travelled from place A to place B and from there to place C. A is 8.3 km from B and B is 15.6 km from C. 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?
Solution
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 travelled 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
