Question

glynis drove a golf ball from a point 126 yd north of the ninth hole to a point 53 yd south of the hole. How far did the ball travel?

Answer 1

179 yds traveled in total.

Explanation:

If the ball was 126 yd north of the ninth hole then it would be 126 yd to the hole.

Then you would have to go another 53 yd south to get to the ball.

So if you add the two together then it would be 179 yds traveled.
