Question

A man plans to go to Delhi from Bengaluru. He travels $2000\text{km}$ $700\text{m}$ by train, $80\text{km}$ $400\text{m}$ by bus, and finally $8\text{km}$ $27\text{m}$ by car. The total distance traveled by the man is:

• A. $208.937\text{km}$
• B. $20893.7\text{km}$
• C. $20.8937\text{km}$
• D. $2089.37\text{km}$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $2089.37\text{km}$

Convert all distances into km
$1\text{km}=1000\text{m}$
$2000\text{km}700\text{m}=2000.700\text{km}$
$80\text{km}400\text{m}=80.400\text{km}$
$8\text{km}270\text{m}=8.270\text{km}$
Total distance traveled = Distance traveled by train + Distance traveled by Bus + Distance traveled by Car
Total distance traveled =
$2000.700$
$80.400$
$+\underset{–}{8.270}$
$2089.370$
