Question

The Jones family is driving from San Antonio, Texas, to Anchorage, Alaska, which is a distance of 4304 miles. They have already driven 1639.271 miles. How much farther does the family need to drive to reach Anchorage?

Answer 1

We know that Jones family is driving from San Antonio to Anchorage, and that the distance between these two places is 4,304 miles.

Distance already covered by the family  = 1,639.271 miles

Distance left to be covered = Total distance - Distance already covered

⇒ Distance left to be covered = 4,304 - 1,639.271

⇒ Distance left to be covered = 2,664.729 miles

Hence, the family needs to drive 2,664.729 miles further to reach Anchorage.
