every day. The school is 1.25 km from
your home. What is the distance you
walk, in meters, every day?

Answer 1

2500 meters

Explanation:

We Know

The school is 1.25 km from your home.

You walk back and forth to school every day.

1.25 + 1.25 = 2.5 km

What is the distance you walk, in meters, every day?

Let' solve

1 km = 1000 meters

2 km = 2000 meters

0.5 km = 1000 / 2 = 500 meters

We Take

2000 + 500 = 2500 meters

So, the distance you walk every day is 2500 meters.
