Answer 1

`\huge\underline{\red{A}\blue{n}\pink{s}\purple{w}\orange{e}\green{r} -}`

we've been given the distance Akash covers on his way to school and some other route and we've been asked to calculate the total distance he travels !

so we'll simply be adding up the distances and hopefully we'll obtain our final answer.

let's start ~

Total km covered = km covered on his way to school + km covered on his way to some other route

`Total \: km = (2)/(3) \: km + (3)/(5) \: km \\ \\ on \: taking \: LCM \: \\ \\ \implies \: (10 + 9)/(15) \\ \\ \bold\red{\implies \: (19)/(15) \:km}`

hope helpful :D
