Sam walks 150 meters to the bus stop and then rides the bus 1.36 kilometers to school. We need to find the total distance from Sam's home to school in meters.

1. Problem Description

Sam walks 150 meters to the bus stop and then rides the bus 1.36 kilometers to school. We need to find the total distance from Sam's home to school in meters.

2. Solution Steps

First, we need to convert the distance Sam traveled by bus from kilometers to meters.

We know that 1 kilometer is equal to 1000 meters.

$1 \text{ kilometer} = 1000 \text{ meters}$

Therefore, 1.36 kilometers is equal to $1.36 \times 1000 = 1360$ meters.

$1.36 \text{ kilometers} = 1.36 \times 1000 \text{ meters} = 1360 \text{ meters}$

Now we can add the distance Sam walked to the distance Sam rode the bus to find the total distance.

Total distance = Distance walked + Distance by bus

Total distance $= 150 \text{ meters} + 1360 \text{ meters} = 1510 \text{ meters}$.

3. Final Answer

1510
