Question

A pilgrim started from a shrine. After walking straight for $100m$, he again moved to his right and then after $500m$, he again moved to his right. After walking a distance of $100m$, he moved to his left and then walked $200m$. He again moved to his right and walked $700m$. In the end he turned to his left two times.
What is the distance of his location from the shrine ?

• A. $1100m$
• B. $1300m$
• C. $1600m$
• D. $2100m$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$1600m$

Let total distance be $x$ then

$x=100+500+100+200+700$

$x=1600$ m

Hence, the distance from his location from the shrine.
