• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is D

Alex's house by 4 km 132 cm
The distance between Rechard's house and his school = 7 km 300 m
The distance between Alex's house and his school = 11 km 432 cm
On comparing distances between house to school, Alex house is far away.
Diffrence between the distances from house and schools of Rechard and Alex = 11 km 432 m - 7 km 300 m = 4 km 132 m
So, Alex's house is far away from his school by 4 km 132 m.
