First, 12.6 times 9 is 113.4. So withouth the space, that is how long the busses are. Then you do 2meters times 8 is 16 meters between the busses. 113.4+16 equals 129.4, the final answer.

Answer:  The total length from the front of the first bus to the end of the last bus is 129.4 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to multiply:

The number of buses by the length of each one

  • 12.6 x 9 = 113.4 meters

The number of spaces between buses by the length of each space.

Since there is no space in front of the first bus and behind the last bus, there are 8 spaces in between.

  • 8 x 2 = 16
  • Adding both results: 16 + 113.4 =129.4 meters front to back

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
