Question

Renee is walking to a store that is 2.5 kilometers from her house. Aer 700 meters, she stops at her friend’s house. What is the distance that Renee will walk from her friend’s house to the store?

Answer 1

After walking 700 meters to her friend's house, Renee has 1.8 kilometers remaining to walk to the store, as the total distance from her house to the store is 2.5 kilometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between Renee's house and the store is 2.5 kilometers. When Renee stops at her friend's house, she has walked 700 meters. To find out how much more she has to walk to get to the store, we subtract the distance she has already covered from the total distance to the store.

Total distance to the store: 2.5 kilometers
Distance walked to friend's house: 700 meters (which is 0.7 kilometers)

We convert the distance Renee walked to kilometers to make the subtraction easier: 700 meters = 0.7 kilometers. Now, we subtract the distance walked from the total distance to find the remaining distance:

2.5 km - 0.7 km = 1.8 kilometers

So, Renee has 1.8 kilometers left to walk from her friend's house to the store.
