Dinesh went from place A to place B and from there to place C. a is 7.5 km from B and B is 12.7 km from C. Ayub went from place A to place D and from there to place C. D is 9.3 km from A and c is 11.8 km from D. Who travelled more and by how much?
It is given in the question that,
Distance travelled by Dinesh = AB + BC
= (7.5 + 12.7) km
7.5
+ 12.7
20.2
Therefore,
Distance travelled by Dinesh = 20.2 km
Also,
Distance travelled by Ayub = AD + DC
= (9.3 + 11.8) km
9.3
+ 11.8
21.1
Therefore,
Distance travelled by Ayub = 21.1 km
Hence,
It is clear that Ayub has travelled more distance
Now,
Difference = (21.1 – 20.2) km
21.1
- 20.2
0.9
Therefore,
Difference of their distance = 0.9
