She has moved her token 12 cm

Hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer: The total distance moved by the token from its start position to the final position is 12 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of each space = 1 cm

Total distance token moved = T

T = 5 spaces + 5 spaces + 2 spaces

`T= 5* 1 cm+5* 1cm+2* 1 cm=12 cm`

The total distance moved by the token from its start position to the final position is 12 cm.
