Let Akash’s Tuesday distance = \(x\) km.
Then Akash’s Monday distance = \(x - 4\) km.
Sanjay runs same distance on both days = \(y\) km.
Sanjay’s Tuesday distance is 5 km more than Akash’s Monday distance:
\[
y = (x - 4) + 5 = x + 1
\]
Total distance Akash ran in 2 days:
\[
(x - 4) + x = 2x - 4
\]
Total distance Sanjay ran in 2 days:
\[
y + y = 2y = 2(x + 1) = 2x + 2
\]
Difference = Sanjay’s total - Akash’s total:
\[
(2x + 2) - (2x - 4) = 6 \text{ km}
\]
Answer: The difference in total distances covered is 6 km.
