Sonam is a cab driver, who plies within a city. The number of kilometres that she drives on a Tuesday was 12.5% less than the number of kilometres that she drives on the day before.On the other hand, the number of kilometres that she drives on Wednesday was 20% more than the number of kilometres that she drives on Tuesday. If Sonam drives a total of 336 km on Wednesday, how many kilometres did she drive on Monday?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
Total distance travel by Sonam till wednesday = 336 km
Distance traveled on Monday = D km
According to question ,
\(\frac{120}{100}\) × \(\frac{87.5}{100}\) × D = 336
D = \(\frac{336 × 100 ×100 }{120 × 87.5 }\)
= 320
So , Distance traveled by Sonam on Monday is 320 km
