Solution

The correct option is A
1.65 km

Distance travelled before first halt = 2.8 km
Distance travelled before second halt but after first halt = 1.3 km
Hence, total distance covered before second halt
= (2.8 + 1.3) km = 4.1 km

Therefore, distance left
= Total distance - Total distance covered before second halt
= (5.75 - 4.10) km = 1.65 km
