Question

Every morning Sam walks to the village dairy to buy fresh milk. The dairy is 1055 m from his house. How much distance in kilometer does Sam walk every morning if he walks both ways

Answer 1

Answer: 2.11 km

Explanation:

Walking both ways means that Sam walks a distance of:

= 1,055 + 1,055

= 2,110 meters

There are 1,000 meters in a kilometer so the number of kilometers walked is:

= 2,110 / 1,000

= 2.11 km
