Question: 6.Sunita travelled 15 km 268 m by bus, 7 km 7 m by car and 500 m by foot in order to reach her school. How far is her school from her residence?
Answer :
Distance travelled by bus = 15 km 268 m = 15.268 km
Distance travelled by car = 7 km 7 m = 7.007 km
Distance travelled on foot = 500 m = 0.500 km
Total distance travelled = 15.268 + 7.007 + 0.500 = 22.775 km
Therefore, total distance travelled by Sunita is 22.775 km.
Question: 7.Ravi purchases 5 kg 400 g rice, 2 kg 20 g sugar and 10 kg 850 g flour. Find the total weight of his purchases.

Weight of Rice = 5 kg 400 g = 5.400 kg
Weight of Sugar = 2 kg 20 g = 2.020 kg
Weight of Flour = 10 kg 850 g = 10.850 kg
Total weight = 5.400 + 2.020 + 10.850 = 18.270 kg
Therefore total weight of Ravi’s purchase = 18.270 kg.
