Question

Jasraj left his house and walked 1500 m east to the supermarket. He then walked another 500 m east to the comic store before walking back home the same way he came. How many kilometers did Jasraj walk altogether?

Answer 1

Jasraj walked 4 kilometers all together

Explanation:

First, add.

1,500 + 500 = 2,000

Then, multiply by 2.

2,000 × 2 = 4,000

Now, we have to convert to kilometers.

1 kilometer = 1000 meters

4,000 ÷ 1,000 = 4

So, Jasraj walked 4 kilometers!

Have a wondeful day! :)
