Gemma is on a coach trip. After a short sleep, she has woken up just in time to see this sign on the side of the motorway:The last thing she remembers seeing before she fell asleep is this sign:How far has the coach travelled while Gemma has been asleep?
Correct answer: D. 56 km
- A. 4 km
- B. 17 km
- C. 39 km
- D. 56 km
Explanation
The correct answer is 56 km. Gemma saw the first sign before falling asleep, missing the distance covered to that point. When she woke up just in time to see the second sign, the total distance traveled by the coach would be the sum of the distance from the starting point to the first sign and the distance from the first sign to the second sign, which is 56 km. The other options are incorrect because they do not consider the full distance covered while Gemma was asleep.
