To find out how far Joey is from home after walking, we can calculate the total distance he walked east and west.
- Joey walked east: 1523 meters
- Then, he walked west: 2134 meters
Now, we can find his net movement by subtracting the distance he walked east from the distance he walked west:
\[ 2134 - 1523 = 611 \text{ meters} \]
Since he walked further west than east, he is 611 meters west from home.
Now, we convert 611 meters into a mixed number. Since 611 is a whole number, it can be expressed as:
\[ 611 = 611 \frac{0}{1} \]
Thus, the answer is:
\[ 611 \]
So, Joey is 611 meters away from home.
