Answer 2

1109 meters or 1.109 kilometers

Explanation:

According to the question, the distance from Maja's house to the library is 2km

The question further stated that Maja biked 891 meters (m) of the distance to the library from her house.

Now, we can notice that the units of measurement in both distances are not the same; one is Kilometers (km) and the other is meters (m). Thus, we have to ensure that the unit of measurement are the same by converting 2km to m.

Since 1kilometers = 1000 meters

Thus, 2 kilometers will be 2000meters

This means that Maja has biked 891 meters of 2000 meters.

Hence, Maja has 2000 meters - 891 meters = 1,109 meters to bike in order to reach the library.
