7. Dinesh went from place A to place B to place C. A is 7.5 km from B and B is 12.7 km from C. Ayub went from place A to place D and from there to place C. D is 9.3 km from A and C is 11.8 km from D. Who travelled more and by how much?
Total distance travelled by Dinesh = AB + BC
= 7.5km + 12.7km
= 20.2 km
Total distance travelled by Ayub = AD + DC
= 9.3km + 11.8 km
= 21.1 km
Hence Ayub travelled More distance than Ayub as 21.1 > 20.2
The difference between path travelled by them = 21.1km - 20.2 km
= 0.9 km.
Hence Ayub travelled 0.9 km more than Dinesh.
