Holly Davis · Answer 1

16,080 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want the total number of kilometers in one year.

so

4 weeks / month.

for Work: 9 months in the year 60 km/day 5 days/week

Family Visit : 720 km for 4 times a year

Personal: 200 km / month

Work total = 60 km/day * 5 days/week * 4week/month * 9 months

WorkTotal = 60*5*4*9 = 10,800 km

FamilyTotal = 4*720 = 2880 km

Personal = 200*12 = 2400 km

Total = 10,800 + 2880 + 2400 = 16,080 km
