Answer 1

The correct answer is D. 56.4

Explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us for solving the question:

Kilometers hiked by Jason on Saturday = 15.6

Kilometers hiked by Jason on Sunday = 18.1

Kilometers hiked by Jason on Monday = 22.7

2. How many kilometers did he hike during the three days?

Total of kilometers hiked by Jason = Kilometers hiked by Jason on Saturday + Kilometers hiked by Jason on Sunday + Kilometers hiked by Jason on Monday
