Question

After travelling$20km$, Manish found that $\frac{1}{3}$ of his journey was still left. How much was the length of the total journey?

Answer 1

First find the Journey left to cover and then find the total distance.

Manish found that $\frac{1}{3}$ of his journey was still left$=$$1-\frac{1}{3}$

Manish found that $\frac{1}{3}$ of his journey was still left$=$$\frac{2}{3}$

It is given that $\frac{2}{3}$ of the length of total journey$=$$20$ $km$

the length of the total journey$=$$20\times \frac{3}{2}$

Hence,, the length of the total journey$=$$30km$
