A man traveled one-third of a distance by bus, Two- fifth by Taxi & remaining 28 km on scooter .
\n" ); document.write( " How much distance did he traveled
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let d = total distance traveled
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Total = bus + taxi + scooter
\n" ); document.write( "d = $\"1%2F3\"$ d + $\"2%2F5\"$ d + 28
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply by 15 to get rid of the denominators, results:
\n" ); document.write( "15d = 5d + 3(2d) + 15(28)
\n" ); document.write( "15d = 5d + 6d + 420
\n" ); document.write( "15d = 11d + 420
\n" ); document.write( "15d - 11d = 420
\n" ); document.write( "4d = 420
\n" ); document.write( "d = 420/4
\n" ); document.write( "d = 105 km \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
