Question

Ansley and her family decided to go to the beach for summer vacation. As they prepared to leave for their trip, her father programmed their GPS with the address of their beach house in Destin. They would need to drive 154 kilometers to get to the beach house. As they were driving, Ansley noticed a sign that said, "Destin - 1000 meters. How many more kilometers is it to Destin? How many kilometers have they traveled?

Answer 1

To find out how many more kilometers it is to Destin, convert the meters to kilometers and subtract it from the total distance. To find out how many kilometers they have traveled, subtract the remaining distance to Destin from the total distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many more kilometers it is to Destin, we need to convert the meters to kilometers and subtract it from the total distance of 154 kilometers.

First, we need to convert 1000 meters to kilometers by dividing by 1000:

1000 meters ÷ 1000 = 1 kilometer

Next, we can subtract the 1 kilometer from the total distance:

154 kilometers - 1 kilometer = 153 kilometers

Therefore, it is 153 kilometers more to Destin.

To find out how many kilometers they have traveled, we subtract the remaining distance to Destin from the total distance:

154 kilometers - 153 kilometers = 1 kilometer

So, they have traveled 1 kilometer.
