Answer:

Akash walked
1(4)/(15) kilometers in all.

Explanation:

Given that:

Distance covered while walking to school = 2/3 km

Distance covered while walking back = 3/5 km

We will add the distance.

Total distance walked =
(2)/(3)+(3)/(5)

Total distance walked =
(10+9)/(15)

Total distance walked =
$(19)/(15)=1(4)/(15)\ km$

Hence,

Akash walked
1(4)/(15) kilometers in all.
