A cyclist travels from the kilometer stone marked 52 to the stone marked 79. How far has the cyclist traveled?
27 kilometers
Kilometre stones mark distances along a road, so the distance covered is simply the difference between the ending stone and the starting stone.
Here the cyclist starts at stone 52 and finishes at stone 79, so the distance travelled is \(79 - 52 = 27\ \text{km}\).
Hence, the answer is 27 kilometers.
