Answer 1

9.6 km

Explanation:

Issa jogged 2/3 of the way home from school.

Then he was tired, so he walked the remaining 3200 m.

In other words, the remaining 3200 m is 1/3 of the way from school to home.

Let the distance from school to home be x. Therefore:

`(1)/(3) * x = 3200\\\\=> x = 3200 * 3 \\\\x = 9600 m`

Therefore, from school to home he traveled 9600 m.

To put this is kilometres:

1000 m = 1 km

9600 m = 9600 / 1000 = 9.6 km

He traveled 9.6 km from school to home.
