Question 7.
Dinesh went from place A to place Band from there 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?
MP Board Class 7th Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Fractions and Decimals Ex 2.5 16
Solution:
Distance travelled by Dinesh = AB + BC = (7.5 + 12.7) km = 20.2 km
Distance travelled by Ayub = AD + DC
= (9.3+ 11.8) km = 21.1 km
Difference = (21.1 – 20.2) km = 0.9 km
Hence, Ayub travelled 0.9 km more distance than Dinesh.
