The tourist route was 200 km, of which 23% fell on the mountainous part, on the flat part – 56% and the rest of the route was by water on a motor ship. What is the length of each section of the route?

First, you should determine the length of the path in the mountainous area.

To do this, we multiply the known distance of 200 km by the percentage of the path in the mountainous area.

We get:

200 * 23% / 100% = 200 * 0.23 = 46 km.

Similarly, we find the length of the path on the plain.

200 * 56% / 100% = 200 * 0.56 = 112 km.

We find the total length of the route in mountainous and flat terrain.

46 + 112 = 158 km.

In order to find the length of the route along the water, we subtract the resulting distance from the total distance.

200 – 158 = 42 km.
