Simple linear equations are mathematical statements that show two expressions are equal and involve one variable to be solved. They help us find unknown values in problems and represent relationships between quantities. Learning to solve linear equations is a key skill in algebra and is used in science, economics, and everyday problem-solving. The Simple Linear Equations Quiz for Grade 7 develops students' equation-solving skills through varied problem types. Students can attempt these 10 MCQs to assess how well they can form and solve simple linear equations.

Read the passage carefully and answer the following question. Mark decides to visit his two friends, John and Ross, on two consecutive days. The distance covered by Mark to go to Ross's house is 72 km less than four-fifths of the distance covered by him to go to John's house. On the first day, Mark goes to John's house. He covers 1/3 of the distance by car, 1/6 of the remaining distance by bus and the rest 300 km by train. The following day, he only travels by bus and train to go to Ross's house and the distance he covers by bus is 60 km more than one-fifth of the distance covered by train. What distance does Mark travel by bus to reach Ross's house?
Answer: (a) 110 km
