The round-trip distance between City A and City B is 150 miles. City C and City D are between City A and City B. You make the round trip in 3 days. On the first day, you leave City A and travel 46.8 miles and stay in City C. On the second day, you travel 51.4 miles and stay in City D. Find the distance between City B and City D.

Answer 1

Answer: 51.8 Miles from D and B

Explanation:

A - C = 46.8 ~ Day 1

C - D = 51.4 ~ Day 2

- Represents Total Trip -

A - 46.8 - C - 51.4 - D - ? - B

150 - 46.8 = 103.2

103.2 - 51.4 = 51.8

If you total

46.8+51.4+51.8 = 150 (Total Distance)

So, the distance between D and B is 51.8
