Answer 1

She covered 0.86 km or 860m by walking.

Explanation:

Given:

➮ Distance between Reeta's house and her office is 14km.

• She covers 10km 65m by Scooter.
• Then, 3km 75m by Bus.
• And rest of distance covered by foot.

To Find:

➮ How much distance covered by foot/walking ?

Solution:

To find the distance covered by foot = Total distance - Sum of distance covered through scooter and bus.

Sum of distance covered through scooter and bus:-

As, we know:

• 1km = 1000m

⇒ 10km = 10×1000

= 10000m

⇒ 3km = 3×1000

= 3000m

So, 10000m + 65m ➝ 10065m

3000 + 75m ➝ 3075m

➝ 10065m + 3075m

➝ 13140m

• 13140m into km:-

⇒ 13.14km

Now, Finding the distance covered by walking:

➝ 14km - 13.14km

➝ 0.86km

Hence, She covered 0.86km or 860m by walking.
