28. A certain height of pole is fixed in a lake whose one third is in mud, one fourth of the remaining in sand and half of the remaining
in water. If rest 6 m is seen above water, find total length of the pole.
Answers
Answer:
let certain height be X
=X/3+X/4+X/2+6=X
=3x+4x+2x+6
_____________=X
12
=9x+72=12x
=72=12x-9x
72=3x
X=72/3
X=24

Given : A certain height of pole is fixed in a lake whose one third is in mud, one fourth of the remaining in sand and half of the remaining
in water. rest 6 m is seen above water,
To find : total length of the pole.
Solution:
Let say pole height = 12P m
one third is in mud = (1/3)12P = 4P m
Remaining = 12P - 4P = 8P m
one fourth of the remaining in sand = (1/4) 8P = 2P m
Remaining = 8P - 2P = 6P m
half of the remaining in water = (1/2)6P = 3P m
Remaining = 6P - 3P = 3P m
rest 6 m is seen above water
=> 3P = 6
=> P = 2
pole height = 12P m = 12 x 2 = 24 m
