Question

A furniture delivery truck leaves the store at 8 A.M. It travels 6 miles east, then 4 miles south, then 2 miles west and then 4 miles north.

At the end of this route, how far is the truck from the store?

Answer 1

It's 4 miles East from the store.

Explanation:

6 miles east - 2 miles west = 4 miles East

Displacement for north and south should cancel out since they are equal to each other.
