Question

One day Akash walked 2/3 km from home to school .On his return he took another route which was 3/5 km long .How many km did Akash walk in all?
please answer in steps.​

Answer 1

Akash walked frm home to school = $\frac{2}{3} km$

Another route = $\frac{3}{5} km$

Akash walk in all :

$\bold{→ \frac{2}{3} + \frac{3}{5} }$

$\bold{→\frac{10 + 9 }{15}}$

$\bold{→\frac{19}{15}}$

$\boxed{→1 \frac{4}{15}km }$

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge\underline{\red{A}\blue{n}\pink{s}\purple{w}\orange{e}\green{r} -}$

we've been given the distance Akash covers on his way to school and some other route and we've been asked to calculate the total distance he travels !

so we'll simply be adding up the distances and hopefully we'll obtain our final answer.

let's start ~

$Total \: km\: covered = km\: covered \:on \: his \: way \: to \: school + km\: covered \: on \: his \: way \: to \: some \: other \: route$

$Total \: km = \frac{2}{3} \: km + \frac{3}{5} \: km \\ \\ on \: taking \: LCM \: \\ \\ \implies \: \frac{10 + 9}{15} \\ \\ \bold\red{\implies \: \frac{19}{15} \:km}$

hope helpful :D
