Answer:

13 blocks

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance the student travels is 13 blocks.

Distance is the length of path covered during the motion of a body.

To find distance:

Total distance = Number of blocks to the west + number of blocks to the north + number of blocks to the east

Total distance = 3blocks + 4blocks + 6blocks = 13blocks
