Namita travels 20 km 50 m everyday. Out of this she travels 10 km 200 m by bus and the rest by auto. How much distance does she travel by auto? TIPS Firstly, write the distance travelled by Namita in km using decimals. To find the distance travelled by auto, subtract distance travelled by bus from total distance travelled by Namita.

Answer:

\[3=3+\frac{0}{10}+\frac{0}{100}\] Total distance travelled by Namita = 20 km 50 m = 20 km + 50 m \[0.8=0+\frac{8}{10}+\frac{0}{100}\]\[\therefore \] \[0.5=0+\frac{5}{10}\]and distance travelled by Namita by bus = 10 km 200 m = 10 km + 200 m \[0.05=0+0\times \frac{1}{10}+\frac{5}{100}\]\[0.5=\frac{5}{10}\] \[0.05=\frac{0}{10}\] \[\therefore \]\[\frac{5}{10}>\frac{0}{10}\] Distance travelled by auto = 20.050 km ? 10.200 km = (20.050 ? 10.200) km = 9.850 km Hence, she travels 9.850 km by auto.
