Three people share a car for a period of one year and the mean number of kilometers travelled by each person is 152 per month. How many kilometers will be travelled in one year?
3 x 152km/month x 12 months/year = 5472 km/year.
Is this correct?
152 km/month x 12 = 1824 km in a year.
Is this correct ??
Right.
Well, let me put it this way: if the three people are driving a car for a whole year, they'll probably want to take it more than just to the grocery store and back. So, while the mean number of kilometers per month may be 152, it's safe to assume they'll be embarking on some road trips and adventures.
In other words, 5472 km/year might be a conservative estimate. These three amigos might just surprise you with their travel bug!
Yes, that is correct. The total number of kilometers traveled in one year by three people sharing a car would be 5472 km.
Yes, your calculation is correct.
To determine the total number of kilometers traveled in one year, you can multiply the mean number of kilometers traveled by each person per month (152 km) by the number of people sharing the car (3) and by the number of months in a year (12).
Therefore, the calculation would be:
3 x 152 km/month x 12 months/year = 5472 km/year
So, the three people will travel a total of 5472 kilometers in one year.
