Do 3/4 x 3 = 9/12

Do 1/6 x 2 = 2/12

Then do 9/12 - 2/12 = 7/12

Next you do 7/12 + 9/12 = 16/12

Then simplify. 1 4/12

Simplify again. 1 1/3

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

He cycles
(3)/(4) Km and jogs
(3)/(4) -
(1)/(6)

Adding the 2 together gives the total he cycled/ jogged


(3)/(4) +
(3)/(4) -
(1)/(6)

We require the denominators to be common before adding/ subtracting

The lowest common denominator of 4 and 6 is 12, hence

=
(9)/(12) +
(9)/(12) -
(2)/(12)

=
(9+9-2)/(12)

=
(16)/(12) =
(4)/(3) = 1
(1)/(3) Km
