Solution 1

  1. First, we need to calculate the distance Walter traveled from his house to the library. He walked 2 blocks to the bus stop and then rode the bus for another 2 blocks to the library. So, 2 (walking) + 2 (bus) = 4 blocks.

  2. Walter came home the same way, which means he traveled the same distance again. So, he traveled another 4 blocks on his way home.

  3. To find the total distance Walter traveled, we add the distance he traveled to the library and the distance he traveled home. So, 4 (to the library) + 4 (home) = 8 blocks.

So, Walter traveled 8 blocks in all.
