    Laura drives to work at 12 km/h and comes back at 9

    km/h. The total travel time for both trips is 7 hours. What is the distance from her home to work?
    A 20 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 15 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 18 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 36 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Total time = 7 hours Equation = d/12 + d/9 = 7 Common denominator = 36, so (3d + 4d)/36 = 7 Combine terms = 7d/36 = 7 Solve for d = d = 7 × 36/7 = 36 km
