Question: 1 / 400

A fire truck travels 30 miles, then returns 15 miles to the fire station. What is the total distance traveled?

30 miles

40 miles

45 miles

To determine the total distance traveled by the fire truck, you need to add the distances of each segment of the trip together. The truck first travels 30 miles away from the fire station. Then, it returns 15 miles back towards the station. The calculation involves adding these two distances:

First, the distance traveled outward:

- 30 miles (away from the station)

Next, the distance traveled back:

- 15 miles (back towards the station)

The total distance is calculated by combining these values like this:

30 miles (out) + 15 miles (return) = 45 miles

Thus, the total distance traveled is indeed 45 miles. This reasoning highlights that total distance is cumulative, regardless of direction, as it accounts for every mile traversed by the vehicle.
