Solution

To calculate the approximate total distance for Vishwasrao's round trip from Alibag (Raigad district) to Naldurg (Dharashiv district) and back, we will estimate the one-way distance and double it for the round trip:

Step 1: Approximate One-Way Distance

Using typical road distances:

  • Alibag to Pune: 140 km
  • Pune to Solapur: 250 km
  • Solapur to Naldurg: 50 km

140 + 250 + 50 = 440 km (one way)

Step 2: Round-Trip Distance

Multiply the one-way distance by 2:

440 km × 2 = 880 km (to and fro)

The approximate distance for a to-and-fro travel is 880 kilometers.
