Ramesh went from place A to place B and then from place B to place CA is 10.8 km from B and place B is 15.5 km from place C, Rahul went from place A to place D and then place D to place C, distance between place A and D is 11.7 km and distance between place D and place C is 18.2 km, Who travelled more distance and by how much, also calculate the total distance between place A and place D and express the total distance in M, CM and KM.​

Part A

Rahul by 3.6 km

Part B

The distance between A and D, through place C, d are;

The distance between A and D in meters, m = 44,500 m

The distance between A and D in centimeters, cm = 4,450,000 cm

The distance between A and D, in kilometers, km = 44.5 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The details of the journeys are;

The distance of A from B = 10.8 km

The distance of B from C = 15.5 km

The total distance Ramesh traveled, d₁ = The distance of A from B + The distance of B from C

Therefore;

d₁ = 10.8 km + 15.5 km = 26.3 km

The total distance Ramesh traveled, d₁ = 26.3 km

The distances of the journey of Rahul is as follows;

The distance between place A and D = 11.7 km

The distance between place D and C = 18.2 km

The total distance Rahul traveled, d₂ = The distance between place A and D + The distance between place D and C

d₂ = 11.7 km + 18.2 km = 29.9 km

The total distance Rahul traveled, d₂ = 29.9 km

Therefore, given that d₂(29.9 km) > d₁(26.3 km), Rahul travelled more distance than Ramesh

The difference between the distance Rahul travelled and the distance Ramesh travelled, d₂ - d₁ = 29.9 km - 26.3 km = 3.6 km

Therefore;

Rahul travelled more distance than Ramesh by 3.6 km

Part B

The total distance from place A to place D through place C, d₃, is given as follows;

d₃ = The distance from A to B + The distance from B to C + The distance from C to D

∴ d₃ = 10.8 km + 15.5 km + 18.2 km = 44.5 km

The total distance from place A to place D, d₃ = 44.5 lm

The total distance from place A to place D in meters, m = 1000 m/km × 44.5 km = 44,500 m

The total distance from place A to place D in cm = 100 cm/m × 44,500 m = 4,450,000 cm

the answer is:

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!
