Francis Nelson · Answer 1

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

Number blocks moved north, = a = 3

Number blocks moved east = b = 5

Number blocks moved south = c = 2

Number blocks moved west = d = 3

Number blocks moved south = e = 1

Number blocks moved west = f = 2

Total distance covered by Susan = a+b+c+d+e+f

= (3 + 5 + 2 + 3 + 1 + 2) blocks = 16 blocks

16 blocks is her total distance covered.
