To find the total distance that Abdul will walk if he stops at the post office on his way to school, we need to add the distance from his house to the post office and the distance from the post office to the school.
1. Distance from Abdul's house to the post office: 0.15 miles
2. Distance from the post office to the school: 38 miles
Now, we add both distances together:
Total distance walked = Distance to post office + Distance to school
Total distance walked = 0.15 miles + 38 miles = 38.15 miles
Since the question asks for the distance he will walk specifically when adding both parts of the journey, let's focus on that:
1. From home to post office: 0.15 miles
2. From post office to school: 38 miles
Total distance = 0.15 miles + 38 miles = 38.15 miles.
Since the answer options you provided might not include the correct total based on the calculations, and the school distance seems massive (38 miles), please verify if the distance from the post office to school should be in miles or if it has a typo like should it perhaps be .38 miles instead of 38.
If we assume the school is actually 0.38 miles away rather than 38 miles. Then:
Total distance walked = 0.15 miles + 0.38 miles = 0.53 miles.
Since that is a good choice around 0.525, hence,
The nearest choice D would be the most appropriate answer.
Thus again checking the choices:
A. 0.15 mile
B. 0.225 mile
C. 0.375 mile
D. 0.525 mile
D. is the closest answer for (if adjusted to 0.38 instead).
