A man travels the distance of his journey $$\frac{3}{4}$$ by bus, $$\frac{1}{6}$$ by rickshaw and remaining 2 km on foot. The total distance travelled by the man is :

A. 12 km

B. 18 km

C. 20 km

D. 24 km

Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Let the man travels 1 unit distance
So, remaining distance
$$\eqalign{ & = 1 - \left( {\frac{1}{6} + \frac{3}{4}} \right) \cr & = 1 - \frac{{22}}{{24}} \cr & = \frac{1}{{12}} \cr & \because \frac{1}{{12}}{\text{ unit}} = {\text{2 km}} \cr & {\text{So, 1 unit}} = 24{\text{ km}} \cr} $$
