Question
Momun comes to school from very far. He first walks about 400 metres to the pond. With slippers in his hands, he then walks 150 metres through the pond. Next he runs across the 350 metres wide green field. Then he carefully crosses the 40 metres wide road to reach his school.
- How much does Momun walk every day to reach school?
- Is it more than 1 km?

Solution
(1) Total distance of school from Momun home
= Distance of pond from his home
+ width of pond + width of green field + width of road
= 400 m + 150 m + 350 m + 40 m
= 940 m
(2) As 940 m is less than 1000 m
So, it is not more than 1 km rather it is less than 1 km.
