Answer:
The house is 2000 meters from the school.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that, when I have walked 20% of the way to school, I have 1200 meters more to walk than when I have 20% of the walk remaining, to determine how far, in meters, is it from my home to my school the following calculation has to be done:
100 - 20 = 80
80 = 20 + 1200
80 - 20 = 1200
60 = 1200
1200/60 = 20
20 x 100 = 2000
Therefore, the house is 2000 meters from the school.
