Answer
To determine the distance she travelled on Fort Street, we first construct the total distance traveled:
Starting from Cedar Hill Cross Road to Cadboro Road: 0.19 km
Cedar Hill Cross Road to Cadboro Road: 3.2 km
From Cadboro Road to Fort Street: The remaining distance to reach the final destination is found by using the total distance:
Total distance = 6.8 km, thus, distance on Fort Street = 6.8 km - (0.19 km + 3.2 km + 2.1 km) = 1.31 km.
