How far is the school from home, in
kilometres
A 9

C. 24
D. 27​

Respuesta :

Answer:

12 km

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 5h 24min = 5.4 hr
  • time = distance / speed

--------------------------------

time out + time back = total time

d/5 + d/4 = 5.4

multiply both sides by 20 to clear the fractions

4d + 5d = 108

9d = 108

Divide both sides by 9

d = 12 km
