Answer 1

Hey!!

Let’s take the total distance as ‘x’

We have completed 13/17th of the trip.

We have 80 km left.

With this, we understand that :

13/17 th of the trip is total distance - 80

.... 13x/17 = x - 80

... 13x = 17x - 1360

... -4x =- 1360

... x = -1360 / -4

... x = 340.

340 km is the totla distance .

We have travelled 13/17 th.

... 13/17 * 340

... 13 * 20

... 260

Hence, the distance we have travelled is 260 km.

Hope my answer helps!!

Answer 2

total length of trip = 340km

u have done 260km

Explanation:

you've already done 13/17 of the trip so 1-13/17=4/17 of the trip left

4/17 of the trip = 80km

total length of trip = 80*17/4 = 340km

u have done 340 - 80 = 260km
