Solution
Distance travelled by Anbu:
From place A to place B = 8.3 km
Distance from place B to place C = 15.6 km
∴ Total distance travelled by Anbu = 8.3 + 15.6
= 23.9 km
Distance travelled by Mala:
Distance travelled place A to D = 7.5 km
Distance from place D to place C = 16.9 km
Total distance travelled by mala = 7.5 + 16.9 km
= 24.4 km
24.4 > 23.9
∴ Mala travelled more distance.
She travelled 24.4 – 23.9 km more i.e she travelled 0.5 km more
